Johannes Torpe Studios was asked by South Beauty Group to design a Chinese restaurant in the Xinyi district of Taipei. The challenge was to design a restaurant that would provide an unforgettable high-end dining experience, while uniting Chinese craftsmanship together with a sense of Danish simplicity.
The concept for the South Beauty Taipei Restaurant is based upon the fusion of traditional and contemporary design principles. We challenged the traditional idea of a Chinese water feature with the creation of a digitalised version; an LED curtain standing in front of the kitchen that plays continuous video footage of a waterfall. The visible flames of the chefs-in-action through the digital curtain create a fusion of fire and water, two essential elements required to bring a space into balance according to the rules of Feng Shui.
The kitchen resides in the centre of the space, staging the food as the central and most important part of the experience. Above the diners' heads is a 800m² Chinese-inspired artwork hand painted by a selection of Danish artists. Additionally, the music is curated to suit the time of day and the authentic Chinese cuisine being served. Together, all aspects of the space form a 360° experience that satisfies all of the senses.
