Project Description


The theme of the restaurant is the "horse" element in Han Dynasty. Combining the European retro elegant memory with the modern urban rhythm concept, the numerous cities have a traditional charm, which makes people feel like they have come to romantic Paris in an instant and become quiet in the blending of East and West. It also uses contemporary art and Cantonese cuisine to create refined aesthetics, elegant people and artistic interests, which blend here. The whole space is made of green marble, wood veneer and gold metal, which is a collision between retro and modern. The ground on the first floor boldly adopts multi-color mosaic marble, which is integrated with the stair steps, and the green marble continues to the lobby on the second floor. Gold foil is used as the background color of the ceiling in the hall, which makes the ceiling layered and stretches the whole space. The interior style of the restaurant is combined with the appearance of Portman building in the mall, reflecting the blending of the center. The entrance of the restaurant, the curved spiral staircase, the arc extending to the ceiling and the wall, the use of simple European lines and the use of Roman columns make the classical charm of the space play to the extreme. The dining room echoes the surrounding garden environment, and observing this scene quietly seems to be a literati's painting, pursuing a natural atmosphere, which is quite meaningful. Soft intelligent lighting brings "home belonging" to customers, immersed in food and joy.
