法国设计师Philippe Starck与威尼斯当地工匠合作，为这座18世纪的餐厅进行了室内改造，设计方案结合了清新的墙面装饰、吊灯，以及复古的家具设施。

French designer Philippe Starck has worked alongside Venetian artisans to restore this 18th-century restaurant, refreshing its upholstered walls, chandeliers and decadent furnishings.







Quadri餐厅位于威尼斯圣马可广场的北部，在广场拱形开口的后方，这里原是一座于1775年开放的咖啡厅，现在归Alajmo家族所有。

这座餐厅经历时代的变迁，Massimiliano和 Raffaele Alajmo找到法国设计师Philippe Starck，希望能够“在现代背景下，仍然保留这座餐厅的历史韵味”。

Quadri is situated on the northern end of Venice's Piazza San Marco, set behind the arched openings of the square's arcade. The cafe, which has been open since 1775, is now owned by the Alajmo family.
After noticing the restaurant had fallen into a state of disrepair, brothers Massimiliano and Raffaele Alajmo approached French designer Philippe Starck to "bring back the original splendour of the space in a contemporary context".



Massimiliano和 Raffaele Alajmo第一次接触这位设计师还是在十年之前，并且在威尼斯和巴黎的两座豪华餐厅进行过合作。Starck近期还负责了让•努维尔的圣保罗豪华绿植酒店设计了室内空间。

Starck说：“Quadri餐厅非常独特，除了有一点无聊，出于尊重与纪念，我们不想过分改变项目中神秘的诗意。”

The pair had first met the designer a decade ago and already worked together on the creation of two other opulent dining spaces in Venice and Paris. Starck has also recently been charged with designing the interiors for Jean Nouvel's luxury plant-covered hotel in Sāo Paulo.
"Quadri was extraordinary, except it was a little sleepy. Out of respect, love and intelligence, we didn't want to change such a powerful concentration of mystery, beauty, oddity and poetry," said Starck.



该项目的一大挑战因素是如何为室内空间添加潮汐元素，这是一种自然现象，它多发生于亚得里亚海海湾，会造成威尼斯多个地区的暂时涨潮。

Starck不想故意去隐藏被未来被水腐蚀的痕迹，他决定为桌腿和部分地面添加黄铜，这样随着时间的推移，黄铜自然氧化，在其表面会产生独特的色彩变化。

A key challenge of the project was considering how to prepare the restaurant's interiors for acqua alta, a natural phenomena where high tides in the Adriatic Sea cause the temporary flooding of several areas of Venice.
Rather than finding a way to conceal potential water damage, Starck instead decided to craft all table legs and other floor fixtures from unvarnished brass, intended to naturally oxidise and change colour over time.



威尼斯城市水位的变化也对Quadri餐厅的LOGO设计造成了影响，该设计由伦敦设计机构GBH和Valese设计制造，这是这座城市里仅存的铸造厂。

餐厅入口上方的黄铜雕塑字体一半为金色，其余部分则由于氧化反应展示了洪水的影响作用。

Venice's changeable water levels also informed the redesign of Quadri's signage, which was completed by London-based design agency GBH and Valese, the city's last remaining foundry.
Half of the brass lettering above the restaurant's entrance has been left gold, while the other has been oxidised to reflect the typical affects of the flooding.



Quadri餐厅的一层是色调柔和的咖啡厅和小酒馆，Starck与当地艺术修复工匠Anna de Spirt和Adriana Spagnol合作，清理了其表面的油漆，露出下方19世纪的泥灰表面。

在二层，Starck恢复了餐厅原有的深红色墙体，并结合富丽堂皇的咖啡色织物，这种织物由威尼斯纺织品制造商Tessitura Bevilacqua设计。

它的设计理念来源于16世纪50年代，但现在经过更新，具有Alajmo兄弟的个人特征，同时也表达了例如卫星和宇航员等太空主题意向。

For the pastel-hued café and bistro on Quadri's ground floor, Starck called on the help of local art restorers Anna de Spirt and Adriana Spagnol to strip back any existing paint and expose the 19th-century stucco underneath.
Upstairs, Starck has upholstered the formerly crimson-red walls of the formal restaurant with a rich brown fabric designed by Venetian textile maker Tessitura Bevilacqua.
The fabric – which is based on a pattern from the 1550s – has been updated to feature portraits of the Alajmo brothers, as well as space-themed imagery like satellites and astronauts.



设计师将20世纪30年代的吊灯进行了修复，这种吊灯由Murano玻璃制造而成，现在成为餐厅的装饰，同时大型椭圆镜面上则呈现着古老照片和动物标本。

近年来许多餐厅都进行了改造工作，例如Snøhetta将美国加州纳帕谷的米其林星级场所的法式餐厅进行了玻璃体量的扩建，另外，Note设计工作室在赫尔辛基的一座古老酒店的餐厅改造中运用了柚木墙体和青色地毯。

Decoration is provided by a restored 1930s chandelier made from Murano glass, large oval-shaped mirrors that have been lined with vintage photographs and taxidermied animals.
A handful of other notable eateries have also undergone makeovers this year. Snøhetta revamped Napa Valley's Michelin-star venue French Laundry with a fritted glass extension, while Note Design Studio used teak walls and teal carpets to update the historic Hotel Palace restaurant in Helsinki.
