Sui Han San You is a restaurant interior of about 1200 square meters set across two floors. The design draws on Tang dynasty architecture, which combines strength and beauty with a balance between rigor and magnificence. Wooden beams and columns form the spatial framework, and walnut columns are arranged along the sides and linked to the ceiling. At the entrance, a walnut column rises from a waterscape and meets a desk surface to form the reception counter. Austere materials and modern techniques reshape the beauty of the interior structure.

Coupled with waterscape, the slope offers a sense of formality and mystery. - Project Duration
