RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
The Sky Lounge Restaurant Design Group began its work with the aim of creating a coherent environment of Iranian identity and originality with modernity, influenced by the Iranian culture and arts, and assisted by elements such as the Sassanian era vault, modern plasterboard mourning, and updated mirror work. And the colors like yellow (the original Persian yellow in ancient tile works as the symbol of the sun) made it all the more open to create a modern, yet lucid environment for the audience. Another remarkable point, such as the diffusion of relish odor in the restaurant’s room, was to stimulate the sense of smell, along with other senses, to make the audience feel different from eating.
CHALLENGE:
Our challenge in this design was the design of the roof of the restaurant was an ancient and Sassanian era, with a height of 11 meters from the floor of the restaurant, and dividing the windows of the window in accordance with the vaults, which provides the best visibility to the audience of the whole city. Also, the use of historical and traditional elements in a modern environment without losing the identity and cultural-artistic value of Iran will create attraction and wonder for the audience.
