Conceived within a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/childrens-spaces\/\">children\u2019s playground<\/a><\/strong>, the building occupies a prominent position at the island\u2019s gateway and was alternatively titled The Brave Cabin, a name that reflects its location among climbing structures intended to encourage exploration and courage. With an interior area of less than 200 sqm, the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/restaurant-interiors\/\">restaurant<\/a><\/strong> emphasizes open, shaded spaces that extend the dining experience into the landscape.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The project builds on a long-standing collaboration between DL Atelier and LUXELAKES, following previous work such as Dotsss Children\u2019s Museum, Edenland Architectural, and The CAPE Commercial District. The design approach for LuxeIsland Restaurant centers on the idea of creating a compact but visually expressive structure that operates as both a dining venue and a landmark visible from across the river. Formally, the building takes the shape of a small mountain composed of interlocking, angular volumes that appear to rise from the ground. Its massing curves gently along the island\u2019s shoreline, while its height and scale ensure visibility through surrounding trees. The structure invites exploration as visitors approach along the open lawns and wooded paths.<\/p>\n<p>all images by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.coppakstudio.com\/\">\u00a9Zhu Yumeng \u2013 Coppak Studio<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">interlocking angular Volumes outline LuxeIsland Restaurant<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The final design adopts an efficient system of flat planes clad entirely in solid wood strips. The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dl-atelier.com\/\">architectural team<\/a><\/strong> at DL Atelier selected this design approach for construction due to its feasibility and visual coherence. The wooden exterior gives the building a warm, tactile character while maintaining a sculptural form that integrates with the natural setting. The building\u2019s roof structure employs a steel space frame, enabling large cantilevers, some exceeding ten meters, and accommodating the restaurant\u2019s open plan. Four clusters of composite steel columns, clad in black stone panels, support the main volume. Portions of this cladding extend outward to create functional elements such as outdoor seating, takeout counters, and wash stations. The triangular openings embedded in the roof serve both as visual apertures and as housings for interior lighting and mechanical systems.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Internally, the restaurant and water bar are enclosed by full-height glass walls, establishing visual continuity between indoor activity and the surrounding park. Large mechanical and kitchen systems are concealed within the roof volume to maintain the purity of the form. The roof\u2019s multi-layered geometry is central to the overall composition, enhancing spatial hierarchy and providing a dynamic profile to the site. As one of the first standalone structures to open on LuxeIsland, the restaurant acts as a showcase for the development\u2019s architectural identity. It combines structural precision with an expressive silhouette that interacts with its recreational setting. The project demonstrates how compact architecture can operate simultaneously as infrastructure, landmark, and social space, inviting both play and pause along the island\u2019s waterfront.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>LuxeIsland Restaurant by DL Atelier sits at the entrance of LuxeIsland in Wuhan<\/p>\n<p>a sculptural landmark designed within a children\u2019s playground<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>located at the island\u2019s gateway, the structure is visible from across the river<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>shaded semi-outdoor spaces extend the dining area into the landscape<\/p>\n<p>the form resembles a small mountain composed of angular, interlocking volumes<\/p>\n<p>composite steel columns clad in black stone anchor the main volume<\/p>\n<p>the structure\u2019s height ensures visibility through the surrounding trees<\/p>\n<p>solid wood strips clad the exterior, enhancing texture and warmth<\/p>\n<p>a wooden and glass facade gives the building a lightweight, natural presence<\/p>\n<p>full-height glass walls connect the interior to the surrounding park<\/p>\n<p>triangular roof openings integrate lighting and ventilation systems<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>the massing curves gently along the island\u2019s shoreline<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>the layered roof geometry defines the building\u2019s distinctive silhouette<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>visitors approach the building through open lawns and woodland paths<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>combining structure, landscape, and play, LuxeIsland Restaurant serves as both dining space and landmark<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>project info:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>name:<\/strong>\u00a0LuxeIsland Restaurant<\/p>\n<p><strong>architect:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dl-atelier.com\/\">DL Atelier<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>design team: <\/strong>Liu Yang, Xu Dan, Hu Yiwei<\/p>\n<p><strong>location:<\/strong> Wuhan, China<\/p>\n<p><strong>photographer:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.coppakstudio.com\/\">Zhu Yumeng \u2013 Coppak Studio<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/Yumeng_Zhu_coppakstudio\/\">@Yumeng_Zhu_coppakstudio<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">designboom has received this project from our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/readers-submit\"><span class=\"s1\">DIY submissions<\/span><\/a>\u00a0feature, where we welcome our readers to submit their own work for publication. see more project submissions from our readers\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/readers\/\"><span class=\"s1\">here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">edited by: christina vergopoulou | designboom<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/architecture\/pyramidal-volumes-wood-strip-patterns-luxeisland-restaurant-dl-atelier-11-04-2025\/\">pyramidal volumes with wood strip patterns frame luxeisland restaurant by DL atelier<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/\">designboom | architecture &amp; design magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DL Atelier sets waterfront sculptural restaurant on LuxeIsland \u00a0 LuxeIsland Restaurant, designed by DL Atelier, forms part of the newly developed LuxeIsland project in Wuhan, China.
