Wokalicious

While open to square and street with ample shop windows, the restaurant’s back wall is carried out as a horizontally structured wooden relief, which in materiality, curvature and stacking reminds of the characteristic bamboo baskets in which the delicious dim sums are prepared and served. Swinging from the entrance along the whole length of the restaurant, the relief connects its three main parts: The main dining area (dining) in the western part, the central bar with a double counter and open show kitchen (short stay) and the lounge-like ‘private dining’ in the back part (relaxing) with seating bench and lounge chairs. The lounge can be divided off by a curtain and used separately by groups in a flexible way.

Apart from soft indirect lighting, the protruding light object Ameba focuses on the central gallery of tables in the main dining area.

As against the light natural materials in the dining area, in the lavatories dark almost black materials form a strong contrast to accentuating gold of glass mosaic tiles, wallpapers and painted surfaces.
