The project aims to be a dining club with high standard, and also a place to explore contemporary humanistic aesthetics; it is a contemporary and oriental piece of work that performances the purified philosophy of the nature, the architecture and the values. The project is characterized by its shadow-appreciating aesthetic, formed by the under-eave space, as well as the use of blurred spatial boundaries. The design is inspired by the relationship between the forest and the site, and explores a way of uniting the people, the building and the nature.
