Unique Properties
A mountain canyon themed dining environment has been created within the urban concrete building. Meanwhile, environmental-friendly rammed earth paired with black rock manifests a commitment to reviving tradition and gravitating towards naturalism. The juxtaposition of water-patterned metallic materials and rammed earth is a contemplative dialogue between the old and new, with the rippled metal and mirrors rendering an airy and dreamy feeling, casting illusory reflections of the space itself.

Production Technology
The restaurant is mainly constructed with rammed earth, glass, and terrazzo. Rammed earth has been a traditional and original construction material that underscores a natural, environmental-friendly approach to reconstructing traditions. The juxtaposition of water-patterned metallic materials and rammed earth is a contemplative dialogue between the old and new, with the rippled metal and mirrors rendering an airy and dreamy feeling, casting illusory reflections of the space itself.
Design Challenge
The ceiling’s holistic design approach elegantly blends diversity with distinctive features, and the mirrored metal forms constantly changing reflections when people walk through the space. During construction, the implementation of rammed earth for the walls posed a great challenge, especially for the wall. Fortunately, after dozens of trials to perfect the texture’s color, the application was carried out at one go not even leaving one flaw.
Project Duration
The project was completed in Shanghai in May 2022
Research
Nestled within the heart of Shanghai's bustling Bund, the Shanghai Qian Mo Fu Restaurant melds the tranquility of natural landscapes with modernization. Embodying themes of mountains, forests, and valleys, the restaurant flawlessly integrates the serenity of the natural environment with the urban concrete construction, infusing the metropolitan hustle with a breath of tranquility.
Inspiration
The oriental and elegant design paints a landscape imbued with poetic fluidity. Water-patterned materials echo the flow of water; wall decorations resemble towering mountains; water ripple-patterned metallic panels mimic streams flowing into valleys; these are all inspired by natural landscapes. Classic red, a hue steeped in oriental allure, is thoughtfully employed in other public areas, setting an ambiance that is magnificent and opulent.
