Client's Name

Fumée

Country / Region

China

Fumée means “smoke” in French. It is the steam when lifting the pot lid. It symbolizes the curling smoke in the village, and it also resembles the twilight mist in the mountains. Fumée is the only road for many delicacies from the natural environment where the ingredients grow to the cooking techniques. Fumée contains poetry and rich imagination to perceive the fusion cuisine and spatial presentation that we carefully offer.

A significant point of a nice space is to allow

our body to perceive the natural rhythm of breathing. This design wants to retain the sensory experience brought by the area fully.

The long bar connects the chef and customers through food. Based on the height of the chef, consider the height difference between the inside and the outside bar to make sure the chef's sight is the same height as the clients when they sit down. Both parties can be more relaxed and comfortable. The long table retains the original state of Nan Mu, and time will make it warmer, and slowly retain a trace of years. The dining table for four on the bluestone slab is a transition from "indoor" to "outdoor". The hanging wall lamp lights up the food at the right time while the floor lamp in the surrounding grass gently wraps it. Tables can be independent and infiltrated by each other. Going down the stairs is a booth surrounded by rocks and plants, with a small piece of tranquility and privacy. The wooden slat window filters the midsummer but retains green and shadows crawling slowly between the tables and chairs.

Our perception contains multiple possibilities interpenetrating, such as various sights, emotions, forms, and words. It sensitively captures and simultaneously accommodates the rhythm of customers’ footsteps, the concentration of the chef, the thirst for waiting for wine, and the ease of the plants swept by the wind.

Rustic elegance, natural comfort, and just-right lighting make every client feel comfortable and enjoy this sensory night.
