Jul-23-2025


Even in the "far corners of the world", one can still experience the exquisite craftsmanship presented.


This case, "Tang Xiaoguan", is located in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province. It is a dining space meticulously designed by Youmi Store Design Research Institute, aiming to convey the brand's temperament of "culinary skills are human art" through visual language. The design team hopes to use the warmth of the space to respond to diners' dual demands for human touch and exquisite cuisine.

The spatial tone: Stability and brightness coexist

The overall space is based on a deep wood color scheme, with red and orange tones as accents, exuding a sense of stability and dynamic energy. The orange-red walls and seats stand out strikingly under the dimmed lighting, creating a strong visual impact and establishing a highly recognizable brand impression.

Circulation and layout: Calm and orderly

The designer ingeniously divided the dining area and the passage area of the restaurant, ensuring the maximum utilization of space while maintaining the privacy of dining. The private rooms, booths and passageways are rationally separated. As you move, the scenery changes. Every corner is immersed in the beauty of the East.

Materials and details: Echoing traditional culture

In terms of material selection, a large amount of natural materials such as wood, stone and fabric are used, supplemented by the integration of handcrafted finishes, metal lamps and modern textures, conveying the design context of "new Chinese style". The details on the wall, such as the dragon patterns, window lattices and lampshades, imply the aesthetic code of Eastern culture.

Lighting atmosphere: Creating a realm with light

The control of light and shadow is a major highlight of this case. The designer did not use too much floodlighting but chose to illuminate some areas, making each dining table seem to be under the spotlight. The warm and soft lighting blends seamlessly with the color scheme of the space, enhancing the sense of ceremony during the dining experience.
