DOMANI东仓 | 金陵喜鹊

Xuanwu Lake is located in the main urban area of Nanjing. It is an important part of the national-level Zhongshan Scenic Area, a national AAAA-level scenic area, and a key national park. Renowned Jiangsu-based Western cuisine brand PICAPICA, leveraging its outstanding brand influence cultivated domestically over the years, successfully established its presence along the Xuanwu Lake scenic route in 2023.

玄武湖PICAPICA喜鹊由我司DOMANI东仓建设执笔本次项目设计，经过历时两年的设计研讨与施工，项目完工落地后毫无意外地成为了玄武湖畔最夺目和热门的休闲西餐厅，并迅速成为南京当地潮流男女们社交与约会首选场所。

Xuanwu Lake's PICAPICA restaurant, with the renowned domestic design company DOMANI leading the project, underwent two years of design discussions and construction. Upon completion, it unsurprisingly emerged as the most eye-catching and popular leisure Western restaurant along the Xuanwu Lake shore. Quickly becoming the top choice for socializing and dating among the trendy men and women in Nanjing.

The main surface material used for the building is a research-developed gravel texture paint. The choice of surface material leans towards a natural and solid soil texture. With a significant amount of this material used throughout the project, the overall space exudes a sense of warmth and depth, creating a cozy atmosphere that blends harmoniously with the famous sunset views of Xuanwu Lake.

The design team created custom aluminum molds to enhance the precision of the gravel texture paint finish, particularly at wall corners. These molds replaced manual craftsmanship, ensuring a smoother finish. This meticulous approach, tailored to specific materials, illustrates the team's dedication to design excellence, a practice consistently applied in their projects.

室内环境构造逻辑

Indoor environment construction logic

室内的功能布局契合建筑体的结构关系来布置，室内与室外的边界切分需要因地制宜。在玄武湖PICAPICA喜鹊项目中，原有的建筑主体可改造程度相对较弱，但外部的环境是该项目中最具有优势的条件。因此，室内空间的布局逻辑：室内空间嵌合建筑结构，同时引用外部景观为室内提升环境氛围。在这种设计理念的指导下，室内的客人用餐区域都有可供远眺的景色。

The interior space design at PICAPICA focuses on harmonizing indoor functionality with the building's structure, adjusting indoor-outdoor boundaries to suit the context. Given the limited potential for transformation in the main building, the project leverages the external environment as a key asset. This design approach integrates internal spaces with the building's structure and external landscapes, enhancing the indoor atmosphere and providing guests with panoramic views.

Privacy or openness

Privacy and openness in the design of a Western restaurant represent a delicate balance. Obvious openness contributes to creating and reinforcing the commercial atmosphere of the restaurant, while the right amount of privacy provides diners with sufficient comfort during their meal.

因此，空间中大量使用了藤编织的屏风隔断，这种屏风平衡了空间的私密性与开放性。相比较于运用墙体作为完全的分隔，藤编屏风的高度和半通透的材料质感给餐厅保留了恰当的空间贯穿感。

Hence, the space incorporates a significant amount of woven rattan screens as partitions, balancing the privacy and openness of the area. Unlike using solid walls for complete separation, the height and semi-translucent material texture of the rattan screens provide the restaurant with an appropriate sense of spatial continuity.

The visual appeal of soft lightboxes

大型的柔光灯箱在室内开放性的布局逻辑中起到了关键作用，它不仅是重要的泛光装置对室内环境光进行铺垫，而且更重要的是作为某种标志对空间中重点功能区域进行提示，在通透的开放式空间中，视觉上产生了家具、装置和隔断之间的穿插关系。

Furniture and Architecture

家具与建筑是空间中的另外一组平衡关系。在诸多一体化项目的设计中，从空间角度来说，建筑比家具更宏观，但从具体的应用或人体工学的角度，家具则远远比建筑更与人相关。毕竟，人们会在一个空间感极强的建筑环境中游览和拍照很长时间，但却绝不会在一张不舒适的座椅上停留超过一分钟。

Therefore, the design team successfully addressed this issue in the project by utilizing custom aluminum mold accessories. These accessories enabled the gravel texture paint to achieve precise finishes not only on the exterior walls of the building but also as detailed components for various interior elements such as ceiling air conditioning vents, access panels, light troughs, and other structural features.

The lighting design focus:

The restaurant lighting is divided into three groups with different functional lighting configurations.

1/室内大型可调节柔光灯箱：它极大地吸引了过路人们的视线。同时，它也为室内提供了基础的环境泛光。另外它的点位位于餐厅中重点的功能区域，起到了强调功能点的作用。

2.Indoor flowerbed projection light source: This serves as the secondary ambient lighting within the project's interior, primarily focusing on highlighting the plant arrangements in specific areas. It also contributes to the overall lighting ambiance indoors. Therefore, its color temperature is consistent with that of the soft lightboxes.

3/室内重点射灯光源：此类型灯光分为两部分，第一是少量的天花工程射灯，它们通过相对隐蔽的安装形式，对重点操作功能区域或出入口区域提供照明。第二是餐桌上方的造型吊灯，这只命名为【Water drop水滴】的灯具是DOMANI的原创款灯具。该灯具的吊装高度较低，对下方直径为1-1.5米的桌面提供舒适的用餐照明。

The relationship between the second floor space and the environment

室内配置了绿植的聚落，是一种建立外部环境与室内环境的视觉联系的手法。

The interior features clusters of green plants, serving as a method to establish a visual connection between the external and internal environments.

The relaxed and flexible design of the terrace

从空间关系上露台是空间感相对比较弱的区域。它依靠大量户外家具的形成多个组团，来划分各功能板块，这些组团可以根据不同的运营场景来灵活变更。由于露台的高频使用时间基本在黄昏与晚上，因此，灯光照明也是露台整体空间构成中的重要部分。

露台布置了大量的点光源落地灯团组作为坐标点，为人流动线提供引导。从宏观上看，灯光组的错落关系构成了露台的空间框架。

VIP包房的环境优越性

VIP包房提供了一个5-12人的独立沙龙场所。它在本餐厅景观最好的位置，且有独立的运营功能及动线。

The iconic role played by the overall architectural relationship in actual operation

Xuanwu Lake Park attracts a wide range of visitors, spanning from 1 to 85 years old, each exhibiting distinct characteristics based on the time of day. Mornings see various age groups engaging in exercises, midday attracts office workers, and evenings draw young adults socializing.Given these diverse customer demographics, the spatial layout and architectural design must be inclusive, providing a sense of security and warmth. This design direction, established by the design team after thorough on-site research, was consistently implemented during the project's construction phase.

PICAPICA喜鹊很幸运地成为了玄武湖公园及周边访客首选的休闲场所，它持续地吸引着众多不同类型的消费者积极地参与这个空间，至今获得了大量令人兴奋的体验反馈。
