Wildflowers

The bar and private dining rooms are placed downstairs as a crowd-puller and designed to be “flowers at night” – incorporating interactive colored lighting, floral wallpapers and bespoke rope curtains that we designed in collaboration with Penang-based macramé artist, Tumbleknots. The dining area on the other hand is placed upstairs, with ample daylighting from the roof oculus cast against a wall of potted greens. The existing windows are enlarged and incorporated with two-sided planter boxes with leather banquet seating nooks while the existing floor void is encased with thin metal cages for creepers to grow on. Tying both levels together is a vaulted stairwell cladded with warped acrylic mirrors and colored lighting – transporting customers from one dimension to another.
