Award-winning architect Kaifeng Zhang transforms an old house into a breathtaking restaurant overlooking Chengdu
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Kaifeng Zhang, a naturalistic architect, has reimagined an old house in Chengdu, China, into the stunning Rocha Cook restaurant. The design, inspired by the surrounding landscape, features white walls seamlessly integrated with the natural environment, creating a unique and romantic dining experience.
The 6000 square meter space, completed in March 2022, boasts a boundless swimming pool and offers panoramic views of the city, earning it the title of "the most beautiful sunset restaurant in Chengdu." The design, realized using simple materials like concrete and white art paint, reflects Zhang's commitment to naturalism and oriental aesthetics.
Despite facing challenges such as rare rainstorms, heavy snowfall, and the pandemic, Rocha Cook stands as a testament to Zhang's dedication to creating modern spaces with naturalistic charm. The restaurant's transformation has earned Zhang the Bronze A' Design Award in 2023, recognizing his outstanding and creatively ingenious design.
