Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The red bricks of the old house were preserved, reconstructed and reassembled with metal, iron and wire to bring the old house back to life through a modern approach. In order to realize the design details, the design team kept the body of the red bricks and used the dark iron parts to create a strong contrast to highlight the presence of the red bricks. The old and the new elements are blended with each other to create a stylish and modern sense of style.
Dimensions & Packaging: The total space is 83 square meters inside and 15 square meters outside, with a dining area, bar area, kitchen and one restroom.

Production Technology: In addition to the red bricks, the stone was also one of the main materials in the past. The designer designed the stone flooring and wall decorations and commissioned the only stone manufacturer in that region to produce this special decoration pieces. The wall light is made of curved stainless steel panels, stone, and red tiles. The gradation of light and texture of the material brings a rich layer of vintage texture to the space.
Design Challenge: The combination of old and new materials can be tricky, both in terms of form and material fit. In order to fix the old red bricks in the bar with the painted iron parts, the design team made concave iron parts, which are fastened to the red bricks in a way that does not damage the original structure and appearance, to create a tandem look.
Research: The design team incorporated vintage elements into the design. Every detail of the space is cleverly arranged to allow the new modern elements to blend with each other and finally integrate a new look that combines the emotions of the past and modern time. Every customer who enters the bistro can enjoy the exotic dishes prepared by the chef with local ingredients in a comfortable environment full of local flavors.
Inspiration: This 40 year old house located in the countryside of Taiwan. The Taiwanese chef owner returned from Italy open this international bistro that cooks local Taiwanese ingredients in a Western style bringing a new taste enjoyment of food and drink. To echo this concept of merging East and West, the team used the original building materials from the old house and presented them in a modern way, creating a space full of local flavor and yet modern.
Project Duration: The bistro, located in Changhua County, Taiwan, began construction in June 2021 and was completed in October 2021.
Operation Flow: In order to bring the bistro closer to the village, the design team extended the indoor bar to the outdoor area, linking the relationship between the interior and the exterior, and at the same time blurring the spatial boundaries. The original door structure was slanted, but the curved lines and curves were used on this side to create a concave visual effect. The curved lines were used to match the light and shadows to attract passers-by and make them want to enter the space.
