The Design

About Gentle L By Alan Yu Restaurantinnredning

Gentle L av Alan Yu er en fransk restaurant lokalisert i Shenzhen, Kina. Interiøret dekker 800 kvadratmeter og bryter med den tradisjonelle restaurantplanløsningen. I midten av rommet står en stor stålsøyle bekledt med håndlaget, krøllet aluminium, hvor krøllene mykner søylens uttrykk og skaper et visuelt blikkfang. Buede rustfrie stålskjermer skiller de private rommene fra hverandre og bevarer samtidig et klart synsfelt, slik at servering kan utføres uten å forstyrre gjestene. Den halvlukkede planløsningen gir privatliv og skiftende utsyn.

Production Technology: At the middle of the space erects a huge steel column made of hand-made wrinkled aluminum featuring wrinkles, which soften the column visually and make it appear more flexible, hence becoming a visual highlight in the space.
Curved stainless steel screens are used to effectively separate private rooms. Such arrangement ensures the timeliness of services since it provides better field of vision, without interrupting diners. The design enables the realization of an attentive service system.
Design Challenge: As the project is a partial transformation of the original restaurant, the challenges are reducing negative effects on the original restaurant and adding more toilets.
Research: The project shows a novel artistic interpretation of aesthetics. In such a space, one table, two persons and delicious food can form a poetic, distinctive and storytelling scene. The project is an attempt to shape the future of the city, and to stimulate people to discover the inner mind and explore playful experiences.
Inspiration: Most French restaurants usually have a traditional spatial pattern. As approaching the project, the design team, however, made an innovative attempt, which broke with the conventional layout while also bringing in French-style elegance and romance. From geometric shapes to natural material textures, dim light and music, all elements are aimed at producing unique and emotion-evoking spatial experiences and allowing people to enjoy the space as if they are appreciating a piece of wonderful music.
Project Duration: Start time: January 2020
Completion time: July 2020
Shenzhen, China
Operation Flow: It is a France restaurant. Slanting curved structures are freely combined in the space. The fluent planes and broken curved shapes create fluid spatial scenes. Floating structures and oblique forms generate a playful sense of lightness and instability. The space is semi-enclosed, which not only ensures privacy but also enables people to enjoy varying scenes and have different feelings when walking in it.
