About Sho Fonksyon Prensipal: Konsepsyon Enteryè Restoran

Tèks Liv: Sho se yon enteryè restoran Japonè nan Kaohsiung, Taiwan, ki gen yon sifas 220 mèt kare. Konsepsyon an kontinye lespri Den nan Tokyo, ki enspire sou ryotei, yon kay manje tradisyonèl Japonè. Planch sèd boule ak akseswa metal fòme antre prensipal la. Planche an lòdòz fè sonje wòch yo te itilize nan Den, epi griyaj fen ki long chemen an fè limyè ak lonbray melanje tankou yon jaden andedan kay. Plafon an fèt ak banbou Taiwanè, epi chèz yo te fèt pa atizan nan Tainan. Espas travay ouvè a pèmèt plizyè chèf travay ansanm nan menm moman an. Pwojè a te fini nan mwa Desanm 2020.

Unique Properties
The head restaurant Den in Tokyo is inspired by ryotie, a traditional Japanese style restaurant. Instead of being restricted by traditions, Den connects itself to the world with innovation and a sense of humor. Taiwan-based branch Sho carries on the elements.
Dimensions & Packaging
The project is 220 square meter.

Production Technology
The yakisugi ban at the main entry may seem rough, but on the second look you’ll find that it connects with metal hardware beautifully, carving out a Japanese-garden-like entry in a modern architecture.
Design Challenge
Walking into the room, however, brightness and openness play strong contrast and tell a different narrative. At the ryotei a set of cypress counter lies, separating the space into dining area and working area. The whitewash lime wall and the niches show the essence of the space: simplicity. In a traditional ryotie, the working station is usually small and multilevel. Yet here in Sho, the station in opened up where chefs can work smoothly without bumping into each other. This also fits the new multiplex trend in Japanese cuisine.
Research
The celling is made of bamboos from Taiwan, reforming into a design that reminds the viewers not only subtle impressions of a wooden cabinet but also a sense of modern neatness. The seats with a Nordic style design are customized by craftsmen in Tainan. Different cultures blending in perfectly with each other in Sho, representing the exclusive spirit and the braveness to explore on this land.
Inspiration
True flavor is found in unseasoned food. Chinese writer Hong said in his book Vegetable Roots. However, this concept seems to be more practiced in Japanese cuisine.
Project Duration
The project finished in December 2020 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
Operation Flow
The slate on floor in intended to remind people of the Oya slates used in Den. Going through the path and then upstairs, thin lattices on the side blur the line between light and shadow. The route from entry to the entrance is an indoor teien experience, which represents the faint ambience in a Japanese garden.
