One Barbecue is a barbecue restaurant located in Shenyang, China. The interior occupies the second and third floors of a market building and covers 1000 square meters. Part of the third floor slab was removed to bring daylight deeper inside and to link the two levels. Mottled exposed cement walls are combined with cast aluminium wall lamps that spread light across the uneven surfaces. A separate staircase entrance, a small kitchen and a street window support takeaway service. The design presents traditional north-east barbecue culture in a simple, open dining space.

The building was originally the second and third floors of the market. However, as a barbecue restaurant, the conditions are not as great as the first floor. In order to attract customers as much as possible, the design taking the local eating habits into account in the renovation, the entrance of the staircase was considered separately, and a small kitchen was added to open a street window and it also has a takeaway function.
Research
