At first sight, it is “a building constructed in the Republic of China (1912-1949)”. To preserve the unique charm of that building, we have travelled over 12,000 kilometers from Shanghai, Guangzhou, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Chongqing… to find the answer to the old house. Those cities have relatively preserved the style and features of buildings constructed in that era.
The designer has retained the 13-meter high ceiling and the unique wooden top beam of old house, to strengthen the feeling of customers when they entering the hall and create a balanced atmosphere with open space.
Instead of ornate decorations, the designer has chosen blue stone slabs for floor materials and granite for skirting line. Both of them contain local features. So the “fragment” of this city can be integrated into our work and better comply with our original aspiration.
The special space atmosphere is a time-tested treasure of the old house. But the feeling and high quality brought by the space to us are created by the designer through carefully controlling and understanding.
