About Dabpa-Shatin Restaurantinnredning

Dabpa-Shatin er en restaurantinnredning som ligger i første etasje i et kjøpesenter i Hong Kong. Planløsningen følger en cellelignende form med 360 graders sirkulasjon, slik at personalet lett kan nå hvert bord fra kjøkkenet. Spiseområdet måler 2233 kvadratfot. Hver bordbenk er plassert ved siden av et stort vindusparti med et potteplantelandskap, noe som gir gjestene privatliv og et personlig utsyn. Mosepaneler er innfelt i overflatene. Designet knytter sammen inne- og uterom, og gir en opplevelse av en hage snarere enn en butikk.
