MAYUMI EHARA Japanese Restaurant Interior Sunday, 16 April 2023

Monya

Monya is a Japanese restaurant with a floor area of about 230 square meters. The west facing facade is formed by tall glass windows, so a very thin wooden lattice was installed across the whole surface to soften the strong sunlight. The interior includes private rooms, a counter where the chef cooks in front of guests, an open space for parties and a terrace seat beside a private garden. One glass private room can be divided in two by a soundproof sliding shutter. The lattice gives privacy without solid walls and creates calm light and shadow.

Wild Restaurant and Bar

Pengfei Ni Restaurant and Bar Interior Wednesday, 12 April 2023

Wild

Wild is a restaurant and bar interior located in Nanjing, China. The original catering space was large and underused, so one area was separated to work as an independent whiskey bar. The restaurant and the bar are divided by a passage, yet remain visible to each other. The restaurant recalls camping in nature, with a large custom canopy made of Oxford cloth, terrazzo flooring and natural rock flakes on the walls. The bar imagines a new home a century from now, with a curved structure of wood and gypsum board around a luminous model of the earth. The total area is 235 square meters.
