Entry Description

As a part of the supporting public area of the hotel complex, the restaurant is located by the stream right at the entrance to the village. The original site of the power station is a two-story house which is quite different from the overall feature of the village. Therefore, we choose to demolish the upper part of the power station and changed the height by reducing the height of the first floor to make a sunken space. The half-open space on the rood made sure there is no close façade, while the two large-scale skylights are opened on the roof to make the space close to nature.
