DESIGN NAME: YooYuumi
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Kids Restaurant
INSPIRATION: The inspiration comes from the owner's profession. She is an actress, so the main dining area incorporates the concept of a ball room. Not only the arrangement of tables and chairs simulates the form of the ball, but the color matching and soft decoration of the space also draw inspiration from it. This design strategy not only buckles the theme, but also uses the characteristics of the dance party to ensure the chirldren in the sight of parents while they playing.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: In order to highlight the sense of ceremony and provide customers with a noble service experience, we carefully consider all design details.The front hall has been given a combination of reception, retail, leisure and other functions. Designer has created an elegant living room with several sets of elaborate cabinets and comfortable sofas. For washroom,the pure and elegant white outlines the mainly bright color of the space. The European-style door arch echoes the form of Chinese paper-cutting.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: In the theater themed restaurant, designer built a castle-like children's entertainment area on the outskirts of the restaurant and a flexible path in limited space to connect the children's favorite rides. The layout design of the dining area and the entertainment area separates the different atmosphere in the space, which allows the parents to enjoy the dinner while enabling the children enjoy themselves in some specific area. The dining experience of both the target groups has been ensured by this design.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Different from the traditional parent-child space such as playground, the parent-child restaurant is a place to meet the social needs of different groups of people. The designer carefully observes the difference in the psychological sense between parents and children, and takes good care of the ritual feelings required by adults and the entertainment facilities necessary for children in the same space. Through the fusion and balance of colors and cultural elements, we have created a cozy parent-child restaurant.
CHALLENGE: The challenge of the project is that it needs to balance the different aethestic needs, usage needs of different people. In the past, parent-child spaces always paid more attention to the entertainment of children, while ignoring the feeling of parents in the space. We hope to bring back the needs of parents. Our design hopes to creat functions that meet their needs, so that both of them will enjoy themselves in the space. Only on this basis, we can promote the communication between parents and children, give them a better experience.
