Project/Product Description | Overall Project Description: On the ground floor, the colour palette showcases vibrant reds and gold metal accents, flooding the space with warm tones: striking red velvet booth seatings are paired with richly decorated fabrics featuring tigers, flamingos and other exotic animals in the style of ancient illustrations from the Far East; turquoise glazed tiles adorn the sushi counter; a golden metal sheet on the rear wall reflects the light softly and draws attention to the sushi counter; cognac-coloured leather bar stools complement the warm tones of the tables, which are finely crafted with a reverse diamond mahogany veneer; terrazzo flooring, spotted with pieces of white marble, resembles the pattern of an Asian cheetah fur and is complemented by the black borders on the wall panels and flute-shaped table legs. On the first floor, the wooden finishes remain consistent with the ground floor, though the red seating is replaced with velvets in shades of orange and sky blue. |
Materials Used | The materials used for the design were carefully selected for their durability, given that this is a commercial project, and to align with the design concept (described above). In particular, the Super Mirror Water Rhythm by Rimex metal, used in the ground floor's central section of the ceiling, was chosen for its undulating and highly reflective surface that resembles gently rippling water. The bespoke pendants were designed specifically to emit a soft light through the perforated gold metal sheets and cascade in a spiral design on the ceiling, reminiscent of the floating lanterns following river currents. |
Sustainability | The project has been executed with a strong commitment to minimizing material waste throughout the space. Measurements of the area were taken at various stages of construction to ensure the efficient production of the custom-made elements. |
Issues Faced | One of the design challenges was the ceiling height. To overcome this, the reflective surface of the Super Mirror Water Rhythm metal sheet was chosen to disguise the issue and create the illusion of height effectively. |
