Banq位于老银行大厅，分为两部分：酒吧和餐厅。空间的设计是围绕着天花板与地面的关系而设计的。如果地面需要灵活地适应餐厅空间不断变化的活动，那么天花板就包含了固定的程序，它们是建筑物基础设施的一部分-结构、排水、机械设备、喷水系统、照明系统，以及其他声学系统。(鼓掌)

Located in an old banking hall, Banq is divided into two segments: a bar and a restaurant. The design of the space is conceptualized around the relationship of the ceiling to the ground.  If the ground needs to be flexible for the changing activities of the restaurant space, then the ceiling contains fixed programs that are part of the building's infrastructure-- the structure, drainage, mechanical equipment, sprinkler system, lighting, and other the acoustic systems.

我们在纵轴上开发了一种横纹桦木胶合板系统，该系统隐藏了上面的系统，同时提供了一个虚拟的檐篷供就餐。木条的几何形状符合上面的设备，但它们也被用来缓和其他相邻设备之间的关系。大厅中间的柱子和酒库，起到了支撑虚构的作用，并从天花板上悬挂下来。如果纵向轴强调无缝表面，那么侧视就会向上面的服务空间提供清晰的一瞥，并揭开幻觉。

We have developed a striated birch plywood-slatted system on the longitudinal axis that conceals the systems above while offering a virtual canopy under which to dine.  The geometry of the wood slats conforms to the equipment above, but they are also radiused to smoothen the relationship between other adjoining equipment. The columns and the wine storage, in the middle of the hall, serve to uphold the fiction, and appear suspended from the ceiling.  If the longitudinal axis emphasizes the seamless surface, then lateral views offer striated glimpses into the service space above, and demystify the illusion.

为了强调这一策略，天花板的某些区域出现了“衰退”，确认了放置出口标志、照明功能和其他细节的位置。在天花板下面，餐厅空间的功能部分是用温暖的木材和重新铺成的竹子制造的，这放大了整个空间已经在发挥作用的条纹效应。地面上的条纹、家具和天花板都合谋创造了一个整体效果，把食客们嵌入到餐厅的谷粒里。

To underline this strategy, certain areas of the ceiling "slump", acknowledging the location of to place exit signs, lighting features, and other details.  Below the ceiling, the functional aspects of a dining space are fabricated with warm woods and re-laminated bamboo amplifying the striping affect already at play throughout the space. Striations of the ground, the furnishings, and the ceiling all conspire to create a total effect, embedding the diners into the grain of the restau
