This project is a high-end Chinese dining establishment designed to elevate the spatial experience through a synthesis of traditional motifs and contemporary luxury. The design unfolds from a strikingly symmetrical entrance corridor, where layered arches and patterned golden mesh panels create a sense of procession and rhythm. Refined lighting design enhances the warm gold tones and provides a sense of depth and opulence without overpowering the spatial clarity.
The main dining hall features timber panelling, custom lighting, and a tailored colour palette that brings warmth and balance to the large open space. Soft-textured upholstery and carefully scaled furnishings ensure comfort and acoustic softness, supporting the social nature of Chinese dining while maintaining a sense of intimacy.
Private dining rooms are designed as elegant, self-contained environments. The use of embroidered linen, bespoke joinery, and layered lighting delivers a heightened sense of formality and seclusion. Materials and detailing across the project were selected to reflect both cultural context and the operational requirements of a premium dining venue, with an emphasis on quality, durability, and refinement.
Overall, the project delivers a cohesive spatial narrative that bridges classical Chinese hospitality traditions with a contemporary international design sensibility.
