This restaurant called “JIA” is located in Shangri-La Hotel Jakarta. Jakarta is an international city where local chaotic landscapes and contemporary buildings coexist. First of all, the owner requested us to redesign the restaurant which attracts not only regular customers but also a new generation and foreigners. So, we tried to renovate this Chinese restaurant from traditional style to café style which has a casual mood. In the center of the restaurant, new show kitchen with a duck oven which has café style mood were made. Anyone in this restaurant can enjoy chef’s performance. The façade of lounge side is also reconfigured openly. Along with this, it made possible to see over in the restaurant from outside, and can feel a welcoming mood. Opened façade emphasizes a modern image of a cafe style like a seemingly does not seem to be a Chinese restaurant. The furniture and feature shelf, lighting are also inspired by café style. All of them are informal and make a relax mood. For the conclusion, we changed image of this space, and create new Chinese restaurant which has café style. We hope the casual impression becomes a new value and this attracts many people regardless of generations and nationalities.
