 "Spring breeze is as expensive as a guest, and it will be prosperous as soon as it arrives" - Zhong Chun Feng . The project is located on the 7th floor of Joy City, Chaoyang District, Beijing. It is the third Restaurant of Zhong Chun Feng . The manager of the restaurant is young actor Tian Shu. He is close to the pursuit of food. Each dish is developed by his own team and named poetic dish names. The whole process is refined, from strict selection of ingredients to taste modulation, The combination and taste of dishes are of great aesthetic value.The site is located at the southernmost end of the shopping mall and the space is relatively hidden. The decoration around the corridor is a traditional Hui architectural style. Most of the materials are white walls, wood, grey tiles and dark grey bricks. The "Symbolization" of Chinese traditional buildings is remarkable. The lights are dim and located at the corner of the shopping mall, giving people a strong sense of "weight" and depression. After many discussions with Mr. Tian, we agreed, After the transformation, the dining environment atmosphere should be cheerful, natural, sunny, modern, "light" and Oriental aesthetic space, which is different from the "heavy" atmosphere of the surrounding environment.

Challenge

he form and material of the facade seriously challenge the established style of the mall. How to continue to build? The 30 aluminum plate well lattice at the top of the space is only 4mm thick. How can it be installed straight? How to create an "inner courtyard" dining atmosphere? Can the concept switching between "inside" and "outside" of space be verified? How to understand and properly reflect the Oriental aesthetic atmosphere?

Atmosphere

As the site is located on one side of the corridor, the corridor belongs to the "outside" of the overall environment and the dining space belongs to the "inside". During the design, we replaced these two space concepts, so we adjusted the direction of the curved hot bending glass on the facade, that is, the convex part of the curved surface of the hot bending glass faces the "inside", The concave part of the curved surface faces the "outside" (usually the hot curved glass is used as the building facade, and the convex part of the curved surface faces the external environment of the building). Once replaced, the internal and external space has been transformed. Now the dining space has become the "outside" (courtyard). The well grid above the top simulates natural light, which illuminates the Zhongdao scenic pool below. There are green plants, stones Small stones and other natural elements are organically embedded in Zhongdao for a week to create a dining experience under natural light; We will slightly raise the central lighting well lattice to a certain height, and four inclined planes will be formed around as the "eaves". Sitting areas are set around the eaves to create a dining atmosphere in the courtyard and under the "eaves". The whole space converges from four sides to the middle island and the well lattice to form an inner courtyard dining space with the middle island landscape and natural light as the core.
