About Tuya Notranjost restavracije

Tuya je notranjost restavracije in bara v zgodovinski stavbi na Dunaju v Avstriji. Zasnova se razprostira čez dve nadstropji in ustvarja neformalno ter elegantno vzdušje. Art deco in postmoderni značaj prvotnega prostora je ohranjen z ohranitvijo krožnega stopnišča in velikega dela obstoječih marmornih tal. Stenske obloge so izdelane iz masivnega bukovega lesa, razrezanega s CNC-strojem v trikotne trakove. Stropno instalacijo sestavlja več kot 3000 steklenih cevi. Teraco tla so razdeljena z medeninastimi profili.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Integrating typical Austrian architecture, the design creates an informal atmosphere over two floors and brings to mind the wonderful French Riviera.
The main visual idea which the design followed was to enhance the subtle Art Deco and Postmodern character of the initial space in which the great Austrian architect and designer Hans Hollein left his imprint. It is the 70's mood and atmosphere in which you will find yourself projected when you enter.
Dimensions & Packaging: The public area of the restaurant is 600 square meters and staff area, including kitchen and changing rooms, are 400 square meters.

Production Technology: All the production was made in Romania, on our workshop and with our collaborators.
Wall coverings entirely made from solid beech wood , using a CNC machine to obtain the triangular stripes.
More than 3000 glass tubes, cut at different dimension each, to obtain the installation on the ceiling.
Terrazzo floor with more than 3 km of brass profile inside, to separate the different colors.
Design Challenge: Being a heritage building, the hardest part was to not alter its character with our design; this translates mainly in keeping intact the circular stair, built by the Austrian architect Hans Hollein, a big portion of the existing marble floor and trying our best to match and integrate all important existing elements with the design.
Research: Almost all elements composing the design are custom made. For each of them we made prototypes, trying to meet the standards and, not the least, to produce the expected image.
Inspiration: When we were commissioned by our clients, their main interest was to create a destination restaurant, where you'll come from everywhere and have a wonderful time in an elegant space.
With this in mind, our main sources of inspiration were the 70's, with their elegant restaurants and Art Deco elements, that were suggested by the building's character.
Project Duration: The project started in March 2018 and finished in June 2019; it is located in Vienna, Austria.
Operation Flow: The main areas are separated as following:
basement, Restrooms
ground floor, Bar and Lounge area
first floor, Restaurant area
