2020年初，我们受阿那亚委托，设计北京老字号爆肚涮肉餐厅“金生隆”在其园区内开设的分店。店址占用的空间由原本规划的三间住宅楼底商打通而成，这造成一个棘手的现实问题：在基地不到三百平米的面积内存在大量长短形状不一的剪力墙，它们或从墙面伸出、或独立于空间之中，总计达到二十一段之多，而业主要求这间餐厅以不设包间的开敞堂食为主要功能，还要辟出一处长度不小于八米的吧台区。这样的运营需求与被剪力墙切割得支离破碎的基地间存在巨大矛盾，于是，如何将这些墙体消化于无形之中便成为我们设计的切入点。

In early 2020, we were invited by Aranya Resort to design a branch restaurant of the esteemed Beijing restaurant brand Jin-Sheng-Long, which is known for serving Hot Pot and Quick-Boiled Tripe (a traditional Beijing street cuisine) since the 1890s.The site, located at the street level of a residential building, occupies the footprints of three originally proposed retail stores. As a result, there are at least 21 structural shear walls, either protruding out from the perimeter walls or standing independently, exist in this less-than-300㎡ site. This segregated spatial condition brought us a huge design challenge, for the client had clearly required an open-dining space without any private rooms, plus a bar area with an 8-meter-long table. Therefore, finding a solution to deal with the many shear walls became the key of our design process.

我们从金生隆的创业故事中得到灵感。这家以北京街头小吃爆肚起家的餐厅，最早可以追溯到创始人于光绪年间在东安门外开设的爆肚摊位，后来又长期在著名的东安市场内经营。

We got inspiration from Jin-Sheng-Long’s history. Back to the late Qing Dynasty, the founder of the brand started his business by setting up street stalls in the famous Beijing Old Dong’an Market, a then popular destination full of dazzling attractions and bustling with life and activities.

我们于是从市场摊位熙攘繁杂、充满市井烟火气的空间图景中获得启发，决定顺势而为，放大基地原有墙丛的形式力量，通过将整个堂食区视作一个完整的大空间、将离散的墙体视作独立于这个大空间中的零散个体，在视觉上切断原有剪力墙与天花和地面间的刚性力学连接，由此消解它们带来的空间割裂感，为访客营造出一种类似市场的空间体验: 一方面时刻身处错综复杂、峰回路转的小空间里，另一方面又始终能够感觉到一个完整连贯的、更大的背景式空间的存在。

We want to recreate the market’s intricate and meandering spatial experience by exaggerating the formal strength of the existing shear walls. By treating the entire dining area as a complete open space with the scattered shear walls as freestanding individual objects, we could visually cut off the shear walls’ rigid connection with the ceiling and floor, thus alleviate the sense of spatial fragmentation and forge a spatial experience not unlike that of a market: while visitors constantly find themselves in intricately confined small zones, they are simultaneously always aware of the single larger background space.

这样，这些墙体既可以解决基地与业主需求间的矛盾、划分功能、引导动线、提高就餐隐私性，也能为这家刚登上米其林推介榜的老字号餐厅留下一些源起之初的文化记忆。

厨房和吧台区对空间完整度要求最高，因此被布置在基地北侧最长的两跨内。吧台区地面由青砖竖砌抬高，面向堂食区的南侧因剪力墙的遮挡而形成类似镜框式舞台的开口，使得吧台前后的食客与店员共同成为餐厅流线终点处的视觉焦点。

As the bar and kitchen are the two most demanding programs for uninterrupted space, they are placed in the two longest structural bays to the very north of the site. The bar area, with its raised floor of old bricks and shear-wall-framed opening towards the main dining area, is designed as a proscenium stage where diners and staffs become the visual focus of the restaurant.

吧台区、厨房及卫生间的设置整合了大约一半剪力墙，堂食区内余下的九段剪力墙则各自被一段新建墙体包裹，加上在主入口附近增设的两段假墙，这十一段墙体隐藏了原有剪力墙逻辑，成为整个方案的灵魂。新建包裹墙体的尺寸依据流线需求及其内剪力墙的形状确定，其中部分墙体还承担了垂直管井的功能。

We managed to utilize about half of the 21 existing shear walls to enclose the bar area, the kitchen and the restroom. The rest 9 shear walls left in the main dining area are each concealed within a new wall. Together with another 2 added non-structural walls near the main entrance, these 11 walls, camouflaging the original shear walls, are the soul of this project. The dimensions of these new walls vary depending on circulation design needs and the shape of the shear walls contained within the new walls. Some of them also serve as vertical pipe shafts.

为凸显这十一段墙体的独立性，我们以一系列设计手法将它们与整体空间进行区分：在色彩上，新墙表面为黄泥肌理涂料，其余墙面、天花和地面则被统一处理成灰色。在形式上，靠近空间边界的新墙均与边界墙面脱开，两者间的缝隙宽度经过设计，使观者无法看到其中与边墙相连的剪力墙。

In order to emphasize the independency of the 11 walls from the dinning space, we applied mud-color stucco to them while assigning a grey tone to all the rest walls, ceiling and floor tiles. The new walls close to the boundary of the space are separated from the perimeter walls. The gaps between the two were deliberately designed so that the viewer cannot see the shear walls connected to the perimeter walls.

我们又在平面上以不同角度旋转了五段墙体，使它们与被天花风口和地面铺砖共同定义的正交体系形成反差。墙面设置的壁龛令这一旋转操作更具迷惑性，几乎彻底消解了访客对剪力墙的猜想与感知，强化了十一段墙自身的客体性。为还原老北京市场摊位特色而特别挑选的长凳及餐桌也被视作这些墙体的附属，追随墙体方向摆设和旋转。

We rotated 5 of the 11 walls at different angles to further contrast them with the orthogonal system defined by the linear air outlets on the ceiling and the tiles on the floor. The niches on the walls make this rotating operation even more confusing, almost completely dispelling visitors’ suspicion and perception of the shear walls, strengthening the objectivity of the 11 walls. Benches and dining tables specially selected to restore the characteristics of traditional market stalls are regarded as attachments to these walls, placed and rotated following the 11 walls.

餐厅临街立面朝东，因此在就餐时段无法获得直射阳光，我们将窗面尽量扩大以纳入更多漫射光，同时也顺承市场的概念意向，保证餐厅面向街道的开放性。每扇大窗下的小方窗内壁特别以火锅所用紫铜装饰，将室内器具层面的意趣投射到室外。

Since the restaurant’s east-facing façade receives no direct sunlight during dining hours, we maximized window area to get more diffuse light into the interior space, at the same time ensuring the restaurant’s openness towards the street, complying with the design concept of a market space. The inner frame surface of the small square windows under each large window are specially decorated with copper used for making traditional hotpots, projecting the materiality of indoor appliance to the street viewers.

我们和灯光师合作，将室内灯具数量减到最少，仅在桌面上方布置有限的聚焦光源，辅以壁龛灯带投射出的洗墙光晕。林立的墙丛使整体空间不可一眼尽收，墙缝中露出的不知来源的微光引人流连探索。

We worked with lighting consultant to minimize the number of indoor fixtures, only placed a few spot lights above each dining table, supplemented by the wall washer light in the niches. The scattered walls prevent visitors from getting an overall view of the entire space at a glance, while dim light of unknown sources leaked from the wall gaps constantly luring them to linger and explore.

当夜幕降临，华灯初上，业主特意挑选的京韵大鼓背景音乐响起，一位食客落座这十一段墙间，在满店杯盘碗筷饰品的包围下，也许能有那么一刻——隔着火锅里升腾的白雾——他/她会看到身边的墙体逐渐蔓延到立面之外、到时间深处，到老东安市场里那些喧腾穿梭、熙来攘往的人群中去，隐入历史的烟尘。

When night falls, the background music of Traditional Drum Song of Peking – specially selected by the client – starts to sound, a diner sits among the 11 walls, surrounded by the decoration of cups, bowls, plates, and chopsticks, there might be one moment when he or she – through the mist rising from the hot pots – could find the scattered walls gradually spreading beyond the restaurant’s facade, into the depth of time, into the noisy and bustling crowds in the Old Dong’an Market, and fading into the dust of history.
