RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Because the interior of the shopping mall design already has its own style, but the overall design style of the shopping mall is different from the theme style of the restaurant, so we need to make the restaurant design not only coordinate with the design style of the shopping mall, but also highlight the brand characteristics. After some preliminary preparatory work and research, finally from the color and details, the interior style of the restaurant and the external environment of the shopping mall are unified.
CHALLENGE: In order to cater to the brand La Rosee, the artistic crystal lamp of the restaurant has chosen the water droplet type. The installation time of the water droplet lamp on site, the height of the suspension line of each water droplet, the angle of view and the shape of each water droplet have been deliberately adjusted many times. In addition, due to the low requirements of ceiling in the original shopping mall, the design space of restaurant ceiling is limited.
