Adapted from the Chinese Creation Myths, the design story of Restaurant Yi depicts the creation of Heaven and Earth by the god Pangu. The restaurant celebrates the concept of family roots and values passed on to future generations. Aedas creates a hidden world for guests to explore within the historical landmark of the Raffles Hotel Singapore.
The restaurant entrance is where the guests’ journey begins. Aedas collaborated with Toronto based luxury art studio Moss & Lam to create an unforgettable art installation made from thousands of handcrafted floral elements. The entrance design depicts the Chinese mythology in the form of garden, where the bar is designed in a ‘living room’ setting situated at the corner. A refined yet humble palette of natural materials like marble and timber in the surroundings bring the earth concept to life.
