About Camellia Primary Function: Nhà hàng

Book Text: Camellia là một nhà hàng tọa lạc trong một trung tâm mua sắm ở Cửu Long, Hồng Kông. Nội thất kết hợp phong cách loft, hiện đại và Pháp, hài hòa với thương hiệu và trung tâm thương mại. Những bức tường hoa màu hồng được điểm xuyết bởi tông màu đen, viền vàng, gương và các mái vòm, gợi nhớ đến Paris. Màu hồng được sử dụng xuyên suốt trong thiết kế, đồ nội thất, bộ đồ ăn và món ăn, bao gồm những chiếc bàn cẩm thạch, ghế, băng ghế và khăn ăn. Hình dáng của những chiếc ghế và băng ghế gợi liên tưởng đến cánh hoa trà. Những tấm gương cổ điển trên một số bức tường mở rộng không gian và tái hiện những bức tường hoa qua hình ảnh phản chiếu.

Unique Properties
Camellia, representing elegant, pure love, sexy, cute, pretty and tough, is used to name such a romantic girly café.
The interior design is in loft, modern and French style, responding to the brand itself as well as the design of the mall. The restaurant is surrounded by pink flower walls, echoes with the black tone with gold trim, mirror, and Arc, like a flower festival in Paris, the Floral City. The color of pink is extensively used in pretty much everything as a theme for brand identification, such as flower wall, marble table, chair & bench, napkin, coffee, noodle soup, and even the toilet. Also, the shades of different pink and shape of chairs and benches actually render the petals of Camilla and some walls are finished by antique mirrors for extending space and spreading the flower walls of pink by reflection. Nowadays, Camellia has now become one of the famous spots for Instagram in Hong Kong already.
