Amazing Time, Revitalizing Soul - Hegeci Restaurant

Description 

The juxtaposition of nature and human environment, here and there, and space reveals a broader worldview.

The courtyard, which was originally dilapidated and almost collapsed, has been repaired, healed, and reborn, upgraded to a city living room.

This is a considerable and perceptible urban space that complements the designer's concept of urban commonality. The 'scenery' derived from visual experience and the 'realm' derived from physical and mental experience are intertwined.

The L-shaped building retains walls, wooden beams, structures, and even trees as a memory inheritance of the building.

The design interweaves the past, present, and future through material comparison and spatial integration.

Green bricks and luminescent bricks, with their smooth touch and rough surface, form an organic contrast in another form.

Chinese courtyards have always pursued a profound artistic conception, as well as the mottled traces of materials. As carriers of time, slats and pebbles form the main texture and appearance of the path.

Ancient trees are a part of the field content, and in the interplay between glass corridors and old buildings, trees serve as emotional carriers of architecture, experiencing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

The original building has added a glass corridor to enhance the experience and optimize the movement line.

The glass corridor provides access to the restaurant's private rooms, giving a philosophical meaning to the experience of wandering in life and art.

The project continues the natural construction concept of the design firm, preserving the walls, wooden beams, every tree, brick and wood, and mortise and tenon structural components of the building, and reusing them when rebuilding the roof.

Leave a growing space between the building and the glass corridor, creating a deep cavity to form a microenvironmental community of ancient trees. Dig deep into the soil at the roots of the trees and fill it with well drained sand.
