Monmono Blue

Monmono Blue is a restaurant and gallery interior in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong. The whole space is finished in a single blue tone, creating a monochrome setting for art.

Contrast is built with gloss and matt textures and with lighting at 6000K, because warmer light would make the blue look green. Most elements were prefabricated and installed on site. The interior covers 1464 square feet and seats 50 guests.

Curved

Beyond Straight Line. The concept of form and shape, rediscovers curved furniture. An apartment within an area of 66 m2. It is divided into two distinct zones.

The Architect chose materials like Khalo stone, fabrics and furniture boards that give a natural feel. All allowed to create an original and elegant interior.
