Design Amaze featuring great design, architecture, fashion, graphics and innovation from across the globe.
This project has renovated the old buildings in the urban plot and gives the new functional mission to the buildings to meet the new functional requirements. Designers try to lead people to accept the modern style in the four-tier city from building facade transformation to interior decoration design to ensure the integrity of the project's implementation.
The industrial landscapes of the 1960-1970s inspired this project. The metal structures made of hot-rolled steel create a realistic intonation of anti-utopia. A rusty profiled sheet of old fences creates an atmosphere of complete freedom of expression. Open technical communications, shabby plaster and granite countertops add to the interior industrial chic of the sixties.
A contemporary North American grill, cocktail lounge and rooftop terrace located in Midtown Toronto celebrating a refined classic menu and indulgent signature drinks. Arthur's Restaurant has three distinct spaces to enjoy (dining area, bar, and rooftop patio) that feel both intimate and spacious at the same time. The ceiling is unique in its design of faceted wood panels with a wood veneer, constructed to enhance the octagonal shape of the room, and mimic the look of cut crystal hanging above.
Purest White is an office interior design created for a clothing materials research and development department and a design department. The 430 square meter space is arranged as a fabric display area, a visitor area, a meeting room and a large open office that supports team discussion. Waiting areas and meeting rooms are separated by walls, and the gaps between the walls guide natural light inside. The floor uses engineering flooring, while original cement columns and part of the wall are kept. White steel frames support display and help reduce cost.
An important element of this design was to bring out the appeal of the materials used. The main material used was western red cedar, which is also used in their first store in Japan. As a way of showing the material, Riki Watanabe stacked up a mosaic pattern by piling together pieces one by one like a parquet, making use of the essence of materials uneven colors. Despite using the same materials, by cutting them out, Riki Watanabe was successfully able to vary the expressions depending on the viewing angles.
Lesprit Cafe is a cafe interior located on the ground floor of a building in Tainan City, Taiwan. The space covers 66 square meters and includes a kitchen, a bar and a dining area. Flat marble, matt brass and black and white tile flooring create a calm and warm atmosphere. Laminated board is used for easy maintenance. Blue paint relates the interior to the exterior of the building. A wooden partition was removed to widen the space, and situational lighting with spotlights and chandeliers adds softness. Furniture from the earlier cafe is reused to limit cost and keep a consistent style.
