Project Brief
Victoria City Restaurant has been providing high-quality Cantonese cuisine in Hong Kong since the 1980s and it has always been a watch of Chinese high-end restaurants and enjoy the reputation of “Celebrity Canteen”. Today, Victoria City Restaurant still upholds the enthusiasm for Cantonese Cuisine and leads Cantonese cuisine to the forefront by continuously creating new dishes and infusing a variety of cooking methods to bring surprises to customers. Thus, In this project, we designed this brand that reflects its continuous evolution. The elegance of traditional Chinese style is reinterpreted into today’s modernity and to fit into the overall space with a touch of French style.
Project Innovation/Need
The combination of old-fashioned floorings that were commonly used in the past has helped differentiate the interior into several areas through the use of two floor patterns. We have conserved the round table settings in the restaurant and extensively adopted wooden materials in the interior. The wooden materials correspond with white or marble materials to soften the atmosphere and give a touch of French palatial grandeur. Instead of a major use of a red colour in traditional Chinese restaurant, we have applied navy blue, grey and white as the main colour palette to feature the elegance in a desaturated state. The touch of matte gold colour offers a grand atmosphere and marble stone corresponding to wooden linings symbolises the fusion of new elements to Chinese culture.
Design Challenge
To rebrand a chinese traditional restaurant we have created a delicate wall illustration of a flower blossoming in the VIP dining room, to become the focal point of the interior giving it a touch of Chinese aesthetics.
