The challenge was to design a more complex interior design project,
complete with a set of architectural drawings and details, researching
several different restaurants to develop a creative concept.
The purpose of this design is to create a magical, imaginary world in
an undersea motif reminiscent of the lost kingdom of Neptune. A relaxed
yet exciting atmosphere was created by the use of gorgeous colors found
in the ocean, and by evoking a mysterious, enchanting quality through
the use of trompe-l'oeil and replication of ruins of an ancient mythological
sea world. The exterior façade of the restaurant was designed
to be finished with highly polished gold-coloured metal and adorned with
portholes to represent a "yellow submarine" that one entered
through to this magic kingdom.This theme restaurant embodies a make-believe
world, in which meeting a mermaid seems possible. Decorations and detailing
serving the central idea and special lighting effects, elaborate. By
creating a definite "look", I hoped to create a "Signature
Statement" for the future planned expansion of a high-end restaurant
chain.
