So people are able to enjoy their own piece of landscape while enjoying their dining. Additionally, each piece of the moss plate you found in the design were inlays and they were installed base on our design intuition, we first worked out certain modules of the mosses to create more than 100 foam plates and test fitted each of them on site for best visuality combination.
Design Challenge: The project required to provide a welcoming restaurant design that is attractive to the passersby inside this busy mall.

Occasional private event was also another guideline.
