About The Cross Café Interieur Design

The Cross ass e Café a kulturelle Veranstaltungsraum an engem Keller zu Taiwan. Den Design verwandelt eng däischter Zon mat limitéiertem natierleche Liicht an eng lieweg Versammlungsplaz vun 1200 Quadratmeter. Vollfaarweg LED-Medienmaueren zéien sech iwwer d'Interieursflächen a stäipen interaktiv visuell Erfarungen. Den Theek ass aus Glasziegele mat programméierbarer LED-Beliichtung gemaach. Edelstol a verspigelt Verkleedunge reduzéieren dat visuellt Gewiicht vun de strukturelle Balken a Kolonnen. Den oppene Grondriss an déi flexibel Zonéierung erméiglechen Ausstellungen, Live-Musek a Gemeinschaftsevenementer.

Unique Properties: This project is a hybrid cultural venue that blends cafe operations with multimedia, cultural, and artistic elements. It stands out with its integration of interactive led media walls, exposed ceiling finishes, and a bar counter made of glass bricks with programmable LED lighting. The space encourages community engagement and serves as a dynamic gathering point for exhibitions, live music, and AI-related content.
Dimensions & Packaging: The space covers an area of 1200 square meters. The design incorporates a range of materials, including tiles, marble, aluminum grilles, stainless steel, artificial stone, stained oak veneer, mirrors, and glass bricks. The full-color Led media walls span across the interior surfaces, with ceiling finishes combining exposed sprayed finishes and diamond-shaped colored light strips.

Production Technology: The design utilized advanced materials such as led media walls and glass bricks for the bar counter. The led walls were employed to create a dynamic multimedia environment, while glass bricks were chosen for their versatility in the bar counter. Stainless steel cladding was used to reduce the visual heaviness of structural beams and columns. These materials were selected for their aesthetic value and their ability to meet the project's technological and structural demands.
Design Challenge: The greatest challenge was the transformation of a dim, underutilized basement space into a vibrant, multi-functional cultural hub. The design had to address the lack of natural light while preserving the building's structural integrity. External factors, such as existing piping systems and large structural beams, required innovative design solutions, like using stainless steel and mirrored cladding to enhance spatial perception.
Research: This project focused on transforming a dim basement into a vibrant cultural venue using multimedia elements like LED walls. The research aimed to enhance the space's visual impact and community engagement. Design trials and expert consultations were conducted, leading to a successful integration of technology, which revitalized the space and fostered a dynamic cultural atmosphere.
Inspiration: The inspiration stemmed from the challenge of transforming a basement with limited natural light into a lively cultural space. The concept focused on creating an immersive environment through interactive led media walls and dynamic lighting, effectively bringing the space to life with technology and vibrant visual energy.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2024 and finished in August 2025 in Taiwan, China.
Operation Flow: The space is designed for flexible zoning and multi-functional use. The LED media walls allow for interactive visual experiences, while the open-plan layout facilitates a seamless flow between various activities. The bar counter, with its programmable LED lighting, serves as a focal point, creating a dynamic space for social interaction, exhibitions, and performances.
