Pearl River Howard Plaza
Hotel for OD Studio
What does a Cantonese-style restaurant look like in your heart? This design project escapes from the stereotypical and existing spatial ambiance of traditional Cantonese cuisines, eliminating the commonly seen presentations of Chinese ancient dimness or excessively extravagant style, as designer hopes to design a space that is capable of maintaining the aesthetic sentiment of Chinese style with elegance and comfort. The human-oriented principle is combined with design, so as to rethink the value considerations for quality life, and to restore the close relations or mutual trust between people.

Production Technology
The original space features dim lighting, which is gloomy without vitality, therefore, we have specially designed an entire piece of large glass, allowing natural light to shine upon the circular seats, in the day, copious natural light shines indoor, guiding the green prosperity from outside, at dusk, lights are ingeniously applied to create a romantic ambience, allowing the users to relax the heart and soul while indulging in it.
Design Challenge
What is worth mentioning is that we have designed a tea savoring area, providing teas for customers who only want to drink tea, as thinking ahead for the customers is the sweet thoughtfulness from us. The human oriented core principle is combined with spatial design, so as to rethink the value considerations for quality life, and to restore the close relations or mutual trust between people.
Project Duration
The project finished in April 2019, locates in Howard Plaza Hotel, Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
Operation Flow
Moreover, elements including marbles and wood carving lines are adopted for the space to enhance the spatial layers while increasing the quality.
Research
The open style booths are presented using wallpapers with Chinese images, embellishing space with aesthetic sentiment, while the carpet is presented via the Chinese ink painting techniques, which resemble exquisite paintings, such that sophistication is replaced by small details, offering the everlasting extraordinary art experience that allows customers to indulge in the space with leisure and comfort.
Inspiration
Cantonese restaurants, in general, are presented with large round tables with crowded people and busy waiters, however, we have ingeniously applied the borders of space to segment the various spatial areas, and further arranged seats with different styles in the various spatial areas, thereby solving the hotel proprietors needs towards encountered customer groups.
