This conceptual restaurant project is located next to the main circulation hallway in an airport terminal. The installation partition, the “one-way boundary” is a study of the interaction between the user and the mono-materiality, in this case, the restaurant guests and the copper pipe.

Architects: Yu Lu
Status: Concept

The installation partition is not only placed for programmatic separation but also created for different visual experience on two sides of the boundary. A person standing on the concave side of the boundary can have a maximum sight with maximum privacy, while the other person standing on the convex side of the boundary is having a minimum range of eyesight and least privacy. Thus, according to the desired privacy level of each programmatic space, the “one-way boundaries” are allocated at specific locations.
