The project brief required construction of a new built structure to form extension to the existing building to provide indoor and semi-indoor dining areas for holding different catering functions to the hotel users.

Under the new steel and glass canopy, a secondary envelope in timber was created to form enclosure to the semi-indoor area and connect the original indoor part. The undulated ceiling-cum-wall panels with slot openings allow daylight penetration yet prevent high heat gain to the whole area.

Full-height glass pivot doors further dissolve the boundary between indoor and outdoor area. Subtle atmospheric change of the two dining areas was created by transition of key materials from timber to brass.
