In the spatial design of Caparesh's restaurant, we have applied neoclassical creative techniques to create a dining space that not only exudes Italian romance but also embodies modern simplicity. Building on the inheritance of classic elements, we have presented the "new" highlights within the "classical" space through the ingenious combination of old and new materials and the interweaving of different structures. Of course, starting from the brand vision of Caparesh, we use the space to depict a story of Italian cuisine and convey to the customers a unique taste that is "traditional yet not only traditional."
The picture frame is one of the main elements in the design facing the internal facade of the shopping mall, integrating the "Italian street view" in the form of a picture frame into the entire space. The combination of large glass windows and wooden materials of the oil painting frame places both the customers and the entire space within a painting that is both modern and reminiscent of the Renaissance period. It introduces an eye-catching facade proportion and fully showcases the dining environment and type of food, stimulating the customers' taste buds and blurring the boundary between indoors and outdoors.
Facing the street, we used the Renaissance architecture's emphasis on symmetry, proportion, and geometric form. Each part of the door frame has been precisely calculated to achieve perfect balance and harmony. The lines of the door frame are simple and clear, without excessive decoration and carving. The black window frames and signs form a sharp contrast with the white facade, while the large glass windows on both sides reveal the warm interior, giving a sense of casual elegance as if strolling the streets of Florence.
