This project is a top-notch grill restaurant for business executives. The owner of this project is a skincare product company investing in a restaurant catering mainly to business executives and celebrities. With discreet private rooms, individual booths, and open seating, the space has a high-end club-like atmosphere. The owner wants to transport guests to the 19th-century era of art and aesthetics, creating a historical context for a sensory experience beyond taste. Inspired by the gentleman spirit, the space is eclectically designed with a rigorous and symmetrical structure that pays tribute to Victorian style. Minimalism reinterprets the elaborate elements, achieving balance and personalization within the classic framework.



The designer created an European opera house-inspired atmosphere through winding pathways, contrasting colors, curved walls, arched doorways, high ceilings, and red curtains. The theater-style seating features booths on either side, with an open central space for a spacious feeling. Symmetrical and asymmetrical design elements achieve visual balance, enhancing the room's delicate and artistic beauty.



The walls of the booth area are designed with two overlapping layers with embedded indirect lighting to supplement the brightness. The subtle lighting and the shadow of the carved moldings elevate the ambiance of the space to another aesthetic level. As a credit for celebrity endorsement negotiations, the project features a thematic corner at the end of the corridor, highlighting the product with a perfect background and making it a natural visual focus point. Additionally, the large private room has a dedicated grill station for teppanyaki shows, providing guests with a sensory feast.
