燒肉達人   上海天鑰橋店 
Yakiniku Master Restaurant 
 

也許素食者不會去光顧日式燒肉店，但位於上海天鑰橋路的YAKINIKU MASTER日式燒肉店的店面設計卻不禁讓人想去一探究竟，該專案是成立於2007年的燒肉達人品牌在上海的第三家分店。品牌創立人期望設計師能將日本禪意與中國江南水鄉的概念相結合，設計一個讓顧客享用美食之餘又能感受到中日文化氛圍的舒適空間。在整體空間上，設計師利旭恒和其設計團隊成員趙爽、季雯運用現代簡約抽象的設計手法演繹中日傳統建築的基本框架結構。  

在餐廳的入口處，一面排列整齊的日本燒烤碳牆面著實令人歎為觀止。設計師巧妙地用這面碳牆隔開了內部的用餐區和外部的收銀區，還把木炭的實用功能轉化為裝飾功能，炭塊橫截面的肌理在高光射燈下變得尤為突出，像一朵朵綻放的菊花。餐廳面積達300平方米，能容納130個座位，公共用餐區呈L型，兩側的木格牆融合了日本傳統建築的木框架結構和中式木質古建築的卯榫結構，展現了建築結構美學，木格屏風對臨窗座位還起到隔斷和統一的作用。吧台後方的大型黑白壁畫以水墨方式呈現江南水鄉中國建築屋脊的弧形輪廓，屋瓦依著梁架迭層加高，展示了經典中式屋頂柔美的弧形輪廓和簡單自然的韻味。為了讓空間擁有粗糙自然且富有水鄉韻味的設計風格，設計師用水泥澆注吧台，讓吧台和天花裸坯與其下方的黑色不規則矩形鋼架、花崗岩桌面形成視覺聯繫。黑色方形鋼管在照明設計方面也起到重要作用，臨窗用餐區的照明設備由黑色鋼管和白色立方體燈籠組成，鋼管有助於藏匿電線，另外，為餐廳度身設計的半月形吊燈象徵著傳統的中式小船，靈動的小船吊燈也與白色立方體燈籠形成視覺對比。在這個看似單一實際充滿多處設計細節的空間內，地板上的矩形框內精細鋪滿了鵝卵石，這些看似隨意的矩形“補丁”使空間像充滿禪意的中式園林。設計師用簡約主義來表現傳統建築結構，所有的元素都簡約而不簡單，像在低聲表述其質地、生命的故事。


Not being big meat-eaters, we may never become regulars at Yakiniku Master Japanese barbecue, but we do love the design of the chain’s latest, its third, restaurant, opened late last year on Shanghai’s Tianyaoqiao road.The 300 square-meter (3,230 square-foot) restaurant seats 130 people. It was designed by Beijing-based Golucci International Design, lead by the Taiwan-born, London-trained designer, Lee Hsuheng, with team members Zhao Shuang and Ji Weng.

The interior of Yakiniku Master Japanese barbecue is a harmonious combination of minimalist modern design and references to both Japanese and Southern Chinese architecture and traditions.

We love the use of the wood frame structures of traditional Japanese architecture, and in particular, the oak lattice work or screens that simultaneously divide and unite the restaurant’s various sections.

We love the half-moon shaped ceiling light fixtures designed by Golucci and referring to small, traditional Chinese boats.
The seemingly random, rectangular patches of meticulously arranged pebbles create cool interest on the floor and resemble a typical Zen-like feature in a Chinese garden

We like the large, black-and-white mural behind the bar area that shows the beautifully curving silhouettes of typical Chinese roofs.
But most of all we love the stunning, ink-black wall of stacked traditional Japanese barbecue coal. It is absolutely beautiful.

All of these quietly elegant elements are not just beautiful to look at, but tactile and interesting, with texture and life and stories to tell.
