About Xiang Design Interior de Restaurant

Xiang este un interior de restaurant chinezesc creat în interiorul unei case vechi din centrul orașului Tainan, Taiwan. Designul este inspirat de salon, o formă istorică de reuniune unde oaspeții se întâlnesc, discută și se relaxează. Structura originală este păstrată și îmbinată cu o formă arhitecturală nouă, tăiată diagonal. Cărămida roșie chinezească, pereții verzi în nuanță Morandi și piesele personalizate din fier în tonuri de auriu-nisipiu răspund preparatelor Hunan servite. Turnarea din beton aparent și acrilul cu textură dreaptă adaugă o notă modernă. O fereastră mare, de la podea până la tavan, dezvăluie trecătorilor atmosfera caldă a spațiului de servire a mesei.

Production Technology
The theme of the project "Chinese" is fully demonstrated by the combination of Chinese red brick, Morandi green and sand gold custom iron pieces.
Interspersed with a very modern clear water mold and straight grain acrylic to device each space.
Let the case jump away from the traditional Chinese cuisine restaurant while being connected with the old cultural memory.
Design Challenge
The original structure of the old house with very limited width and high, located in a small neighborhood in the center of the city. The space inside was so narrow for dividing the rooms for the Chinese cuisine in the three districts to fit in the 8-10 people dining round table and dining area for 2-4 people, plus a big room for 12 people. And outside the access to the building is difficult.

The timeline is also a big challenge as we had only 2 months from designing to complete the entire construction.
Research
"Xiang" is a province of China - also known as Hunan. The local dishes are famous for their rich and spicy taste, rigorous production and outstanding taste. Hunan cuisine is one of the eight major cuisines in China, regarded as one of the representatives of Chinese cuisine overseas.
The choice of decorating materials is based on the Chinese red, green and gold Combine red brick with Morandi paint as well as the sand gold custom iron to create the atmosphere responds to the food we serve.
Inspiration
The original intention of this space design was "Salon"
Salon - The first word in Italy in the 16th century, was invited by the host to participate in other guests, to increase the opportunity to communicate with each other, or to enjoy themselves and enhance the self-cultivation. This form of gathering was also very popular in France from the 17th to the 18th centuries until modern times still exist.
Project Duration
The project started in September 2018 in Tainan city, Taiwan, and finished in early November 2018.
Operation Flow
Taking the base of an old house structure, planned a large front area box location with custom lighting and imported tile desktop. Thru the large floor-to-ceiling glass window to convey the pleasant and warm dining atmosphere, to express a strong impression to the passing people stay in sight. Inside, the combination of Chinese red brick, morandi green wall and custom gold iron decoration perfectly responds to the Xiang dishes the restaurant serves, and brings the people back to the old times.
