About Takeen Omakase بار

ٹیکین کا ڈیزائن اس کے قدرتی بانس کے ماحول سے متاثر ہے۔ یہ ڈیزائن کوالالمپور کے ہلچل مچانے والے شہر سے آرام کے لیے ایک پائیدار، نامیاتی انکلیو بنانے کے لیے اپنی عملی ضروریات کے ساتھ پودوں کی شکلیات، خاص طور پر بانس کو مربوط کرتا ہے۔ بایومیمیٹک ڈیزائن پودوں میں پائے جانے والے پتوں اور شاخوں کے نمونوں کی ریاضیاتی تشریح سے ابھرا ہے۔ جیسے جیسے داخلی دروازے، بار اور باورچی خانے کی دیواریں دھیرے دھیرے منقسم ہوتی ہیں اور ایک دوسرے کے ساتھ ملتی ہیں، روشنی کا جھرنا اپنی ناقص شکل کو نیچے کرتا ہے، جس سے بانس کی اندرونی نوعیت کا تجربہ ہوتا ہے جو کہ ٹیکین کے لیے منفرد ہے۔

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: This design integrates plant morphology, particularly bamboo, with the functional requirements of the brief, creating a dichotomy between the bar and its neighbors. Diverging from the existing array of rectangular concrete forms, the fluid, biomimetic design of Takeen emerged from the mathematical interpretation of leaf and branching patterns found in plants. As the entrance, bar, and kitchen walls slowly bifurcate and converge, it creates an organic continuation of space that is in harmony with nature.
Dimensions & Packaging: Takeen offsets the total carbon emitted from the use of lightweight concrete blocks and tiles through bamboo materials. The total amount of carbon stored by using 25mm wide x 15mm thick and 5mm wide x 25mm thick strips of bamboo and timber is 20.31 tons. In comparison, the total amount of carbon emitted from the use of lightweight concrete blocks and tiles is 1.538 tons. By using bamboo and a timber structure, our project stores 18.77 tons more carbon than it emits.

Production Technology: The organic design began with organizing the programmatic requirements of the omakase bar and kitchen in relation to site constraints. Limitations in the depth of the existing space generated a residual area that became the starting point of the plant based growth patterns throughout the design. The result provides 37 percent more storage space than what was originally required, eliminating the sight of glassware, servingware, containers, etc. to maximize the experience of bamboo.
Design Challenge: One of the main challenges was to create an omakase bar that appears minimalist and natural, expressing the beauty of bamboo. To seamlessly construct the curved bamboo walls with the shelves, countertops, and cabinets, each having different radii, the entire space had to be customized. The omakase bar counter tops were prefabricated into various sized panels using 5mm wide strips of bamboo and installed on site first. Then, thin strips of bamboo were installed individually to create continuity between the different curved surfaces.
Research: The arrangement of leaves on a stem, also known as phyllotaxis, have a common divergence angle that is related to the Fibonacci sequence, which is 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, etc., where the division of two successive numbers approximates the golden ratio: 1.618, or its inverse 0.618. The golden ratio has also been found in the bifurcation angles of bamboo, 34.4 degrees, the inverse of the golden ratio of 90 degrees or 0.618. These growth patterns and ratios were used as design parameters of Takeen.
Inspiration: The design of Takeen is inspired by its natural surroundings. Existing bamboo trees nearby led to the vision of a sustainable, organic enclave that forms a connection between the interior space and the flora around it. Bamboo, or take in Japanese, transforms the bar into a tranquil space for eating, drinking, and resting, freeing patrons from the congestion of the bustling city.
Project Duration: The project started in March 2022 and finished in Jan 2023
Operation Flow: Bamboo is experienced as a material, system, and immaterial space. The natural smell and touch of bamboo combined with the geometrical translation of its growth patterns into space and form, enlightens the senses. As light cascades down its undulating forms, an amalgamation of shadow, material, and organic space is experienced. From the existing corridor, the entrance branches off into the space, creating a natural flow between inside and outside. Internally, the walls, cabinets, counter tops, and shelves seamlessly flow into one another through a discrete set of curved geometry, creating a working area that is easy to operate and an experience of bamboos intrinsic nature that is unique to Takeen.
