The project is located in the commercial plaza on the first floor of the Hangzhou Proya Headquarters Building.
Exquisite Cuisine Under Long Years
There is a famous saying by Baron Montesquieu: "Lunch kills half of Parisians, and dinner kills the other half." As the leader of modern Western food, French food has the ultimate sense of ritual and luxurious enjoyment.
New Era
Undefined French Cuisine Culture
The design was inspired by the 1975 New Topographics exhibition in the United States. The mountain-shaped landform flows with time, the wind and sand are honed, and the human traces and the natural boundary line gradually blur, penetrate each other, and merge into a neutral aesthetic feeling with a deep meaning under the calm appearance.
This is highly consistent with the French cuisine's emphasis on romance and the pursuit of the ultimate sense of ritual. It makes people feel as if they are in another dimension of time and space, away from the noise, the years are long, and they are immersed in delicious food.
Amber
It is a kind of spirit, presented above time. Adhering to Po, imagine how to use the original elements as the leading force to create a space atmosphere, excavate, penetrate, carve, polish, and finally reshape the new life.
START
In an immersive environment, the space surrounded by mottled texture and the hidden and profound scale bring unprecedented impact and unknown power. The transformation of noise and quiet, the interaction of light and shadow and space, the changing moon, highlights its tidal force, and its natural force guides us to explore the inner space.
BREAK
The atrium takes the bedrock of the site as the background. Under the primitive and dull blocks, through the wind damage of time, the craftsmen are involved in the tempering spirit, and they are constantly sculpted to show people in new forms. Naturally, it should flow at will, and time is an order that is not transferred by human consciousness. How to properly penetrate and repair is the core expression of space.
Random, abstract, bringing real illusoryness to every inch of space, this is an interesting experimental exploration. The semi-roaming space form is tight and detached, with a sense of proportion between a stone and a pillar. With rhythmic light and shadow, you can step into it and change the scene.
Using special materials to simulate unexcavated rocks, through the rise and fall of tides and the impact of wind damage under climate change, the morphological gaps of different blocks are formed. After that, it is chiseled and polished with a hammer and a stone. The handicraft and the original tension blasting, the roughness and the texture temperature are combined, and the ingenious technique has been polished several times, which is the value of the space.
INFILTRATION
Tannin reaction, hiding random language forms, floating light and shadow, spread inside the dark cabinet, the two are lurking and jumping, leading to a new field. The flowing polyphenolic compounds transmit projection and transcoding, bypassing what we see, a new world beyond the senses.
Beneath the rough space is a private area, where the breath of cut tobacco permeates and wanders, revealing emotional walks. Riedel wine glass and cigar smoke entangle, under the modern approach, wrapped in a sense of chaos unbroken and intrusive. The compact space scales meet each other's emotions to reach the best point of slight intoxication.
LIGHT
Light, the only subject in the dark space, is a dialogue medium between fantasy and reality. Through light, supernatural, unknown, exploration, and dream emotions are told and emerge. This is a feast that can be felt and touched, a new life under innovation and remodeling, separated from reality, sitting in it, the real perception traces back to the source, and a taste feast presented above time.
In the half a year after the completion of the project, it has been liked by everyone. Whether it is catering enthusiasts or designers, the selection and application of materials have played a certain role in the operation and maintenance management. The sense of calmness in the space is In the holding of various events, the theme of the event can be more prominent and complement each other. I think design is another way of operation, and the two are combined.
