About The Sea Refuses No River Design de Interiores de Restaurante

"The Sea Refuses No River" é o interior de um restaurante de Teppanyaki situado na área central de Xangai. A área interna tem 478 metros quadrados e a área paisagística, 800 metros quadrados. O projeto une linhas modernas à estrutura tradicional chinesa em madeira, evocando as esquadrias de ferro das casas Shikumen. Os materiais incluem cobre que imita aço inoxidável, rocha vulcânica de Hainan, lâmina de madeira de carvalho, mármore cinza e tecidos leves. Um tapete de parede feito à mão reveste o corredor. Paredes curvas e um teto escalonado sugerem o movimento das ondas.
