Unique Properties

The Dragon Restaurant is located in the Financial Tech office building. A relaxing restaurant atmosphere with natural elements is sought. One of challenges is that 80% of the dining space is located underground and therefore there is no natural light. There is a balance between Financial Tech and nature.

Production Technology

Concrete Casting a "waterfall" and "pool" via digital tech.

Design Challenge

80% of the dining space is located underground and therefore there is no natural light.

Project Duration

2019-2020, Beijing

Operation Flow

Even though it is underground, people like its environment and feel good because of the simulation of light and the nature.

Research

cast concrete. simulated natural light

Inspiration

Nature is simulated: one by casting a "waterfall" and "pool" via digital tech. Some copper ducklings even "swim" on this cast installation. Because of the long cold winters, outdoor-waterscapes are not suitable in Beijing, but people love water features. Another simulation is to imitate the shape of a valley and various plants and different seasons in the private dining rooms which are without windows and natural light.
