It was year and a half ago; I made pizza 4P’s as my first work in Ho Chi Minh City. Thankfully, the restaurant has been so successful and seats have a chronic shortage. This is an expansion project to make a waiting bar, pizza oven and seats.

Considering the balance between existence restaurant. I wanted to exceed customer’s expectation with an audacious space configuration, to fit this aspiring restaurant.

In particular, I placed a open bar taking advantage of high ceiling on the front, toward to the back made lower ceiling, and the floor rises with a slope, it brings customer to a calm seat which as if wrapping them.

Main compositions of the space are Arched ceiling and wall becoming a part, cladding in marbles. The purple floor which is the symbol color of this restaurant, the bar counter with crashed tiles.
