About Silver Lining 餐廳及酒吧

一間好的酒吧是為生活增添色彩、有時更能調整心情的絕佳場所，無論你是與朋友相聚還是獨自前來。這個案例是一間融合式酒吧，位於台北市中心一棟舊建築的一樓。結合業主對拱門和異國風情的偏好，設計將「山谷之夜」的概念視覺化。深綠色調充滿整個空間，而中央的柱子將空間劃分為廚房和座位區。在空間略為有限的情況下，兩個倒L形區域讓室內動線流暢，並營造出舒適的用餐體驗。

Tags: Hsiao-ching Hu, J.Y. Design, Silver Lining, Restaurant & Bar, a Night through the Valley
Production Technology: Frosted glass is used for the windows to create an image of swaying moonlight passing through the shadows of woods that cover the entire valley, luring passing travelers in. Along with the green and gray, accessories and construction methods that imitate nature also enhance the tranquil experience, creating a moment of peace among the mountains.
Design Challenge: Delicate use of reflections, just like moonlight shining down through the leaves, can be found in both the acrylic mirrors that hang from the ceiling and hand-made lamps on the bar. From simple but precise design, along with creative use of complex materials, a magical space comes into existence at a seemingly mundane street corner.
Research: A straight bar extends all the way into the room. Behind the bar and the double tables, gypsum is used to form a rough surface on the walls. With belt lights hovering over, the texture creates a unique sense of wilderness, mimicking weathered mountain walls.
Inspiration: Combining the owner's preference for arches and exotic touches, the design visualizes the concept, "a Night through the Valley." Dark green tones fill up the space, while the columns in the center divide the room into kitchen and seating sections. With somewhat limited space, two inverted L-shaped areas allow for smooth interior traffic and a cozy dining experience.
Project Duration: The project finished in May 2021 in Taipei City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The rugged, unsaturated touch on the dark green walls simulates the misty views in a forest. The texture on the floor is created with a customized organic paint to visualize a stream that flows through the valley.
