Project/Product Description	The scale of the project is not large, with a total site area of 800 square meters and a construction area of 150 square meters. The location gives the project a distinct historical and urban identity which also gives a unique brand identity to the restaurant. The project has a clear logic of spatial construction with all the design approaches based on the existing structure of the site. The facade of the buiding and the ventilation on the ground are cleaned and well decorated, the ground is partially repaired with a cover of hard paving. The art installation of sculptures and lighting are added as well to beautify the space. Stairs are the essential elements in every building, and our design inspiration comes from the ancient aesthetic principle of Fibonacci Sequence. Fibonacci Sequence is widely known as Golden Ratio which is the most aesthetic and mysterious sequence in the natural world. As we all know, one of the most important mission of architecture is how it will bring the aesthetic joy to our living world after satisfying our basic needs. The spiral stairs become the external spinal to link different spaces into a complete entity. Visitors can directly go to the observation platform at the top through the stairs and embrace the magnificent panoramic view of the city.
Materials Used	The layout of the interior is clearly arranged, with all the elements including bars, toilets and a small number of dining spaces respectively perform their own functions. The main dining area is located in the second floor with a separate VIP area divided by the sliding door. The warm and elegant light-grey micro-cement walls have seamlessly connected the restaurant into a whole. The void in the middle of the building has formed a sense of depth as well.
Sustainability	The project has a clear logic of spatial construction with all the design approaches based on the existing structure of the site. The facade of the buiding and the ventilation on the ground are cleaned and well decorated, the ground is partially repaired with a cover of hard paving. The art installation of sculptures and lighting are added as well to beautify the space.
Additional Comments	The three elements: architecture, landscape and sculptural art are perfectly intertwined to form a glorious aesthetic space, in the meanwhile, it opens up a new way of aerial tour for the public.
