Dabpa-Shatin
Dabpa-Shatin is a restaurant interior located on the ground floor of a shopping mall in Hong Kong. The plan follows a cell-like shape with 360 degree circulation, so staff can reach every table from the kitchen with ease. The dining area measures 2233 square feet. Each banquette seat is placed beside a large window scene with a potted landscape, which gives diners privacy and a personal view. Moss plates are inlaid across the surfaces. The design links indoor and outdoor space and reads as a garden rather than a shop.
Dabpa-Shatin restaurant by Minus Workshop has been recognized as an innovative example of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Dabpa-Shatin restaurant won the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2021. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design prize which honors outstanding design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
