Indulge in the breathtaking ambiance of Songyun Villa, the perfect fusion of an art deco restaurant and traditional Chinese decor. Welcome to Songyun Villa, an exquisite restaurant in Changzhou (China) that combines traditional and modern elements to create an unforgettable dining experience. The restaurant’s interior design (the result of an extensive renovation by the interdisciplinary design practice, Bob Chen Design Office) is a fusion of Chinese decor and art deco restaurant design, featuring multiple small and large dining rooms spread over three levels, with each one exploring this common theme in a different way. In this article, we will delve into the details of Songyun Villa’s interior design, highlighting its unique features and the ambiance it creates for diners. Arriving at Songyun Villa When first arriving at Sognyun Villa, one can be immediately amazed by the villa’s imposing brick gate, decorated with detailed stone carvings in true Chinese tradition and embellished with subtle details in the form of golden accents and purposeful lighting that recalls us to the art deco style, warning us about the place we’re about to enter. If one dares to do so, they’re immediately greeted by a lush courtyard showcasing original decorative features. The villa’s outdoor area boasts a sleek fish pond with steel and wood borders, complementing the existing marble reliefs, stone pedestals, and mosaic tiling. This patio also features a bar housed in a modern metal building painted black, designed to balance with the villa’s original brickwork, setting the tone for the restaurant’s interior design. Entering Songyun Villa The tiny vestibules and halls that are encountered when visitors approach the home serve as a prelude to the restaurant’s unusual layout. The segmented arrangement of the house was maintained by the Bob Chen Design Office, which also added a bigger dining hall in the former ballroom, with the restaurant now featuring fifteen dining rooms of varying sizes distributed over three levels (but all of which exploring this beautiful balance between Chinese decor and the art deco style). This variety of eating spaces enables everything from private dining and small parties to bigger ceremonies. With each room having a distinctive décor, the designers have let their imaginations run wild, embracing a style that is deeply rooted in traditional Chinese decor and that is presented through a contemporary perspective leaning heavily on an art deco restaurant design approach. In this sense, the designers behind this project took inspiration from traditional Chinese art forms (and Chinese decor) such as landscape paintings, porcelain decorations, and calligraphy, integrating a variety of designs that range from floral motifs to geometric patterns and figurative art into the wallpapers, screens, tiling, and artworks. Furthermore, other traditional Chinese decor pieces are also placed throughout the restaurant, like antique vases, ceremonial tea sets, incense burners, and bonsai plants. To counterbalance everything, the designers implement contemporary design staples like clean lines, simple shapes, and a somber color palette of saturated dark hues and grey tones, leaning heavily into the art deco restaurant approach with detailed furniture and light fixtures with gold accents and opulent vintage designs. But it is this mix of natural textures like rough stone and wood with clean and sophisticated ones like glossy metallics, polished marble, and velvet, that creates this spatial and visual experience that is both sticking and balanced. When Art Deco Restaurant Design Meets Chinese Decor The design of Songyun Villa is a true masterpiece, with a unique and eclectic mix of Chinese and Western architectural and design elements, making it a harmonious blend of the old and the new. The villa’s interiors are an homage to Chinese decor, and the design approach of this art deco restaurant has successfully created an indulgent spatial and visual experience that complements the culinary experience. Dining at Songyun Villa is not just about the food but also about the experience, from the moment guests enter the villa’s courtyard to the intimate dining spaces, which have been designed to evoke a sense of Chinese heritage rendered through a modern lens (thanks to the mix of Chinese decor and the art deco style). The Bob Chen Design Office has truly achieved a balance between past and present, tradition and modernity, and East and West. Are you feeling inspired by this project? If you have an interest in exploring the art deco world further, we have a collection of pieces that can help you add the Art Deco style to your interior decoration. HOMMÉS Studio offers a range of unique furniture pieces from seating to tables, lighting, and storage. Take pleasure in discovering our selection! Source: Songyun Villa

Well, either case, look no further than Beefbar Milano, a restaurant sure to satisfy both your appetite for design and cuisine. This high-end restaurant (and the latest installment of its well-known restaurant chain), located in the heart of Milan, is a must-visit destination for design enthusiasts and foodies alike. Designed by the Monaco-based design studio Humbert & Poyet (who have been working with the Beefbar brand for over 15 years), this restaurant design is an excellent example of how classic and modern styles can be combined to create a unique and inviting dining experience, filth with understated luxury and “warm glamour.” The Architecture Located in Piazza del Quadrilatero, Beefbar Milano is housed in the historic Archbishop Seminary, which has been restored by architect Michele De Lucchi and his studio AMDL CIRCLE, who preserved the structure’s architectural history while introducing a contemporary look that elevates the restaurant design to the standards of the modern era. The Beefbar Milano restaurant’s architectural features also pay homage to modernist architect and designer Luigi Caccia Dominioni, a key character of the so-called Milan style, with its meticulously repaired, hand-plastered vaulted ceiling, dark walnut fluted wainscoting, and terrazzo flooring with stylized wave pattern., which bring this restaurant design to a whole new level. The Decor Dominioni’s trademark fusion of curves and straight lines, steel and velvet, and the traditional and the modern also inspires the Beefbar Milano restaurant design with simple yet opulent décor and a mix of vintage and contemporary furnishings. In this sense, the designers bet on this mid-century Italian vibe through a mix of furniture that ranges from standout pieces like the plush green velvet sofas and the red leader dining chairs (which bring vibrant splashes of color to the room) to the detailed dining tables with black marble tops, which themselves vary from circular to rectangular shapes., creating a fun layout that makes this restaurant design so much more interesting. When it comes to lighting, there is also a mix of modern suspension lamps with vintage wall, floor, and table lamps, adding to the mid-century style of this restaurant design, while an eclectic collection of artworks (that focuses mainly on different types of portraits) completes the stylish yet relaxed ambiance of Beefbar Milano. The Food But let’s talk about the key reason for you to visit Beefbar Milano: the food. At Beefbar, the focus is on high-quality beef dishes, featuring a variety of cuts and preparations that are sure to satisfy even the most discerning palate. Whether you prefer a tender filet mignon or a flavorful ribeye, Beefbar’s menu has something for everyone. And for those looking for something more exotic, there are options like wagyu and Kobe beef, which are sure to impress. But at this Milan location (Beefbar Milano), there is also a big focus on signature dishes (like tartare) and traditional Italian cuisine (like the Kobe beef Carbonara or the pappardelle with bolognese ragu of wagyu and veal with 101-month parmesan), being that this restaurant’s menu counts on a lot of pasta options (and we really do mean a lot). Here, there are no micro portions or tasting menus, but instead, dishes made to be shared, abundant, and a menu that in the evening is enriched with new courses. But what really sets Beefbar Milano apart is its commitment to quality ingredients and expert preparation. From the sourcing of the beef to the cooking technique, every step is taken to ensure that customers have a truly exceptional dining experience. And the same can be said of the restaurant design, with Beefbar Milano reflecting this ethos, providing a space that is both timeless and contemporary, where guests can indulge in the finest cuisine in a stylish and relaxed setting that is a perfect reflection of the restaurant’s menu: sophisticated, luxurious, and unforgettable.

Modern, timeless, extraordinary. This is how most diners describe the mysterious interior design of the new Siji Minfu restaurant in Beijing. The IN.X studio is responsible for the project. Without any doubts, the design creates a remarkably comfortable dining experience. It combines contemporary design techniques with traditional regional culture and old architectural symbols. Inside the restaurant an open waiting area welcomes the visitors. Here, a huge caisson structure hanging from the ceiling opens up to the red-colored ambiance. The landscaped area consists of a waterscape and rocks accentuated by the hanging branches of the persimmons. The designer adopted a moderate renovation technique. All of that was in order to preserve traces of the original building. He started with dismantling the interior space into two modules. The first one was an open area on the first floor. The next thing was the f-shaped roundabout area on the second floor. This area is a closed functional space. A bar accentuates the space with its 5.2-meter-high red façade. It extends upwards, curves into a surface, and connects with the building. To bring an amazing experience of this mysterious interior design, the designer had played with the lighting. Large-scale rendered blue lights overflow from the ceiling and part of the walls, like a digital skylight. On the second floor, an open room welcomes people into the grand and open ‘temple’. ‘In the almost grand scene, the solemn and silent space, the rough and gentle texture, the gurgling water, and the daily emotions are superimposed, and peace and grace coexist in the place’, explains the designer.  Check out our journal to discover more inspiration and find daily dose of modern and spectacular interior design trends.
