This restaurant is a new experimental play of architectural elements. Embedded in nature through dense vegetation, completely fluid and organic built-structures that intertwine together as a single holistic space. Complemented by the raw textures of wood and concrete on which the plants and indoor greenery will crawl up to forming a protective and lively skin around the entire space. It opens up and connects to the outside through large windows.
Nature is full of creative shapes, and irregular complex design formations such as clouds, seas, dunes, etc. Designers have always admired these curved formations and began to simulate their complex structures, but they faced a problem in the difficulty of implementing with traditional techniques in design. With the development in the digital revolution, mathematics, biology, and computer software in the twenty-first century has given rise to many complex designs and architectural trends.
Architect Frank Lloyd Wright, was the one of the first to invent the term Fluidity in the 1990s. He made it the primary language of his architectural projects, after which many designers began to apply the concept of fluidity in their architectural projects such as architect Zaha Hadid, whose work is characterized by fluidity and free dynamism.
The concept of fluidity in the Cambridge dictionary is the state of matter in which the structure changes constantly and spontaneously. It is a state of uncertainty and flow. Mohamed Badie, lead architect at Badie Architects, describes his approach in designing the Il Mullino restaurant as an experimental and analytical one. His use of the fluid concept creates a theatrical scenic interior inspired by fluid architecture. In his opinion, fluidity in design can answer to the needs of human beings, and can provide a visual insight in scenic architecture.
The aesthetic and visual values of the concept of fluidity, and the need to clarify the possibility of using the concept of fluidity and to benefit from it in designing visual compositions that can be used in the formation of innovative theatrical scenes is something essential to Badie. He made it the primary language for the studio's architectural projects. Experience in theatrical design creates a new language for communicating with the recipient. It is through experimentation in creating visual visions and renewable and innovative formulas that a building comes to life. The great development in computer science has made a huge leap in creative thinking and the creative process. So, the question remains, can we benefit from employing the digital concept, " fluidity ", in designing? Yes, it will always be a tool waiting to be used by architects and designers who want to add a phenomenological sense to their work. The allow the user to connect with the building and the space in general. they extend the value of the program into a deeper meaning.
