Design Description

Oriental Spirit
Employing wooden structural features suggestive of the Tang Dynasty along a central axis that unfolds sequentially incorporating post and beam construction, walls, doors and windows having layered facades with linear juxtaposition to extend the decorative charm. Add to this an Edo era courtyard structural style to create a tranquil sanctuary having deeply soothing cultural overtones with deft evocation of spatial divisions that stretches the new concepts in innovative dining spaces.

Culture
Putting resources into culture to satisfying various interior architectural and operational objectives. Basis the relationship of activity with locale in the design in combination with the thorough investigation of the essential essence of the unrefined interior space through the use of media and lighting, these designs fully fulfill the spirit of the topic by bringing dynamic flow into the space that bursts with fresh and lively dynamism and by being responsive to the linkage of the interior with the exterior to smoothly create a stable and reserved innovative locational culture.

Mix
Natural media textures offset by blue lighting extend, penetrate, concentrate and the lines between surfaces, smoothly fusing stylish contemporary architecture with the meandering serenity of an Edo era garden. By way of this detail-oriented attitude, new and old are harmoniously combined with each successfully imbuing the other with interest. Natural flowers form an arc alluding to an imagery of cycles while perpendicular lines within a haze of round lights form an expression of contrast, elegantly delineating the unfettered essence of the dining area and steeping it in graceful tranquility with an air of poetic refinement.

Original Concept
Through originality, regenerative creativity becomes the central means for transmitting a design's extended and integrated collective vocabulary for the expression of new and old constructs. Free association that flows from the the unrestrained play of light and shadow, facilitates the sequence of space and structure within form and concept, to evoke a sense of transcendent rhythm
