默卡托位于外滩著名的三家餐厅内，是著名厨师让-乔治·冯格里希顿(Jean-Georges Vongerichten)在上海的最新美食目的地，也是第一家提供高档但乡村风味的意大利美食。奈里

Situated within the prestigious Three on the Bund, Mercato is renowned chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s newest culinary destination in Shanghai, the first of which to serve up an upscale yet rustic Italian fare. Neri&Hu’s design for the 1,000 square meter restaurant draws not only from the chef’s culinary vision but also from the rich historical context of its locale, harkening to early 1900s Shanghai, when the Bund was a bustling industrial hub.

除去经过多年修缮后形成的装饰层，设计理念颂扬裸露结构元素的美。外滩上的三座建筑是上海第一座用钢建造的建筑，而建筑师们展示原始钢柱的决定对这一非凡的壮举表示敬意。在现有砖瓦、混凝土、石膏和模塑的纹理背景下，新的插入物被清晰地划分。不断地与老对手打新秀，内里

Stripping back the strata of finishes that have built up after years of renovations, the design concept celebrates the beauty of the bare structural elements. Three on the Bund was the first building in Shanghai to be built out of steel, and the architects’ decision to reveal the original steel columns pays homage to this extraordinary feat. Against the textured backdrop of the existing brickwork, concrete, plaster and mouldings, new insertions are clearly demarcated. Constantly playing the new against the old, Neri&Hu’s design is a reflection of the complex identity of not only the historical Bund, but of Shanghai at large.

从电梯里下来，人们立刻注意到上面维多利亚时代的石膏天花板，华丽的陈年帕蒂纳(Patina)与原始钢衬垫并列：墙上的一系列储物柜、滑动的金属闸门门限和悬挂的栏杆，从这些栏杆上悬挂着一堆折中的玻璃灯泡-旧上海的富饶与更坚韧的一面相得益彰。

Coming off the lift, one notices immediately the Victorian plaster ceilings above, its gorgeous aged patina juxtaposed against raw steel insertions: a series of lockers along the wall, a sliding metal gate threshold, and the suspended rail from which a collection of eclectic glass bulbs hang—the opulence of old Shanghai coinciding with a grittier side.
