TALK
- Fashion in the eyes
Delicacy twisted in the tip of the tongue,
temperament stayed in the heart
Details decide everything. Even
when all the details are meticulously choose and specialized
arrange, the whole thing would be absolutely good. The
restaurant of TALK, which located at the 5th floor of
skyone shop of Maison Mode, is just a good example. Besides the
exquisite food, the environment also sent out a strong flavor of
fashion. Big as the wall, lamps and lanterns, tables and chairs,
etc., small as the tablecloth, coffee cup and soupspoon, every
detail of TALK is just right, properly show the combination of
modern and classic fashion.
After dining, you can either have
a look at the bouquet in the florist shop, or enjoy the top
red-wine and cigar in the bar of TALK. Because of these things
co-exist, TALK seems like own a double spirits---gentle and
cultivated in the daytime, relaxed and unrestrained at night.
Talk about
something here. In the restaurant, you can talk something about
public affairs, private affairs, business, romance as well as
chat with old friends. In such a gentle, fashionable and
comfortable environment, with the delicious food and dessert,
whatever ˇ®talk?would proceeded successfully as the feast goes
on.
Every detail has a story, elegant and fashionable
Color: TALK was completely
designed by the Italian famous designing company-Arcabi. The
main tone of TALK is composed of noble black and splendid
golden. The black film-gilded glass and steel give a sense of
faint clearance. If we switch on the light, the warm color
created by those Italian hand-made lampshade, makes the
restaurant fill with sense of warm, elegant and ambiguous.
Wall: The effect of dark
golden or pearl white wall was not created by wallpaper, but
brushed by stucco. Specially we invited an Italian workman come
to brush, the whole wall was finished in 15 days and it cost a
lot. Due to the different strength, gesture and mood of the
workman, every side of the wall shows a slight difference, full
of artistic flavor.
Chairs: Different style of
sofa, chair and bench in the resting area, all of these
materials give us a completely different shape. Under the pure
black background, plus those red, yellow and blue ground
lantern, created a vivid gesture of art and fashion.
Tablecloth: These dark
golden and black tablecloths in the Restaurant come from France.
They have natural folds. When we placed them on the table, they
fell down and presented a beautiful wave. Sometimes when we
lowed down our head, these waves are truly a great enjoyment.
Curtain: The silky copper
thread curtain; it presents a folded decorative pattern. And
because of the curtain, those golden-like partition glasses show
a special effect-we can see ambiguous shade of people, but
cannot see through the distinct appearance, creates a sense of
mystery, gives us a lingering charm.
Ceiling: The ceiling of the public area is all
joggle-jointed by black film-gilded glass. No strange or ugly
rivet, it was bind by special material. The U style concave
groove, which was used to hang lamp, has a function of adjusting
the pendent lamp. Even when we put the table together, the
lamplight also can light the shifted table properly.
All of the coffee cups are of Italian famous brand-Alessi. These
ceramic or glass coffee cups are of diversified pattern, full of
interesting. Even when ten people sit together to enjoy the same
king of coffee, the cups can be different.
Teacups are graceful and
practical, such as the double-decked tea cup, even when the
water is too hot, it would never hurt scald your hand.
The wine glass and bar glasses are
from another Italian brand-Bormioli Luigi. The wine glasses have
a special function with ripple; the ripples increase the area in
contact with the wine. It helps fast oxygenation, intensified
the hues and reflections in the wine without having to tilt the
glass.
Tableware: All of the
tableware is of Germany brand-Villeroy Bocb that originated from
1748. Villeroy-Bocb was once rewarded as the ˇ®Royal
Manufacturer?by Austria empress in the 19th century.
The name of this brand had been connected with a lot of
impressively famous places, such as the chinaware of
Villeroy-Bocb in the first-class cabin of Titanic.
The
Villeroy-Bocb that TALK chose was pure white, simple but well
design, fit perfectly with the style of the restaurant.
