MOON RESTAURANT & TEA LOUNGE

PORTFOLIO — Georgia

Georgia | 2018

The Narrative: Curvilinear Spatial Flow & Gastronomic Theater This commercial food and beverage hospitality project relies on fluid, curvilinear spatial zoning to orchestrate guest circulation and elevate the dining experience into a visual narrative. Departing from rigid commercial grids, the design incorporates sweeping architectural enclosures, bespoke organic millwork, and micro-zoned seating clusters that balance grand presentation with cozy, human-scale privacy.
Materiality & Spatial Execution
• The Tea Lounge: The main lounge volume is shaped by a sweeping, semi-circular screen wall featuring integrated artisanal display niches for curation. This curved boundary reflects an overhead oval ceiling recess finished in textured silver leaf, which anchors a cluster of sculptural ribbed pendants. Soft, tub-shaped armchairs upholstered in textured grey wool weave are grouped throughout, creating a spacious yet communal landscape over seamless, high-polished marble flooring.
• The Restaurant Dining & Buffet: The dining zone introduces a richer, grounded material canvas featuring deep walnut-toned paneling and structured geometric shelving units. The culinary presentation is anchored by a monolithic, capsule-shaped buffet island clad in seamless white engineered stone, backed by a dramatic wall featuring custom-carved floral bas-relief masonry.
• The Structural Layering: The overhead volume features custom-engineered structural shelving designed to house oversized oak barrel elements, adding a rustic weight to the contemporary layout. Clean, white marble dining tables are paired with dark-framed, custom-curved chairs wrapped in textured charcoal upholstery, while geometric brass lantern chandeliers pierce the space with sharp, rhythmic light.
