About Ricky's Kitchen 레스토랑 인테리어 디자인

Ricky's Kitchen은 홍콩에 위치한 레스토랑 인테리어입니다. 이 디자인은 브랜드 아이덴티티를 유지하면서 도시를 재해석합니다. 특징적인 포인트 벽면은 콘크리트의 숲을 연상시키는 소재를 사용하였으며, 발코니가 있는 건물 파사드를 떠올리게 하는 기하학적 형태와 불이 켜진 세대를 모사한 조명으로 구성되었습니다. 천장 중앙의 선형 LED는 고층 빌딩 사이로 보이는 좁고 긴 하늘을 표현하며, 양측의 네온 조명은 장노출 사진에 담긴 고속도로의 차량 궤적을 연상시킵니다. T자형 레이아웃은 네 개의 반개방형 준프라이빗 공간을 형성하고, 이동식 테이블을 갖춘 벤치 좌석은 다양한 규모의 단체 손님에게 적합합니다.

Unique Properties
Reinterpreting “Hong Kong”, translating it into visualization while keeping the identity of the brand has become the challenge of designing the Ricky’s Kitchen branch. For the feature wall, the use of materials represents forest of concrete, the geometry renders the building facade with balconies as well as the density of the city, and the lighting mimics the households in the buildings. For the ceiling, the white LED in the center represents the “Linear Sky Exposure” of Hong Kong, the Leon light on both sides imitate the long exposure photography of highway, symbolizing prosperous Hong Kong and heavy traffic. In terms of futuristic touch, linear LED light, the floating-like portal with bamboo and infinity mirror are designed in respect of the original.

Production Technology
For the feature wall, the blocks were not made and installed one by one but in a few prefabricated panels. The pattern was designed with the script, generated and calculated by the computer.
In order to make sure the final result is ideal and everything works and fits, the project was mainly created in the computer; rendering is heavily used for testing different materials and calculating lux as well as color temperature for all lightings throughout the entire design process. For communicating on-site with the contractor, besides the construction drawing set, a virtual reality walk-through was also created for the workers to quickly understand the project.
Design Challenge
To preserve the local elements of Hong Kong on one hand, whilst incorporating Japanese elements on the other has been a great challenge to us in the development of the design as both of these cultures are unique and significant in their own way. We experimented with various expressions on the traditions and cultures with representation in the spaces and choice of materials. For instance, in order to create a large sense of space in the relatively narrow site, a fair amount of mirrors has been implemented.
Inspiration
Advocating the spirit of fusion while reinterpreting and illustrating Hong Kong in the design is what the goal is, which parallels with the goal of the brand.
Inspiring by this unique scenery of the city of Hong Kong, illustrating a “one-line sky” scenery, that represents what people see overhead in the street while surrounded by high-rise buildings.
Contributing to the “one-line sky”, cantilever structure above the walkway is seen very often in the city to further narrowing the street due to highly valued land, which we try to create that feeling abstractly.
The feature wall was inspired by the night view of the city, the use of the material is symbolizing “concrete forest” the nickname of Hong Kong.
LEON light is also used due to the impression internationally, the way of representation is coming from the traffic of highway in the camera under long exposure.
Project Duration
The project is located in K11 Art Mall, Kowloon, Hong Kong. The design was started in June 2019 and the construction was finished in November 2019.
Operation Flow
The "T" layout creates four semi-private zones for different sizes of gathering, including the head, the two wings, and the middle. Bench with movable tables also allows flexibility in terms of operation to cater to different groups of guests.
