Ortensia

French-Japanese mixed Parisian Restaurant

Interior design by Chris Shao Studio

A Japanese chef and a Chinese pastry chef dare to do French-Japanese cuisine (in Paris and now China). Opening a second to their Michelin-recognized Parisian restaurant in Shanghai.

Ortensia blends Parisian sentiment, Japanese sophistication and a unique Shanghai charm on the foundational elements of the hydrangea (“Hortensia”) and the distinctive traits of Shikumen architecture. On the second floor these retro characteristics are retained while the French panel design echoes the language of the building. The traditional and contemporary are presented in harmony with an emphasis on luxury.

Hydrangeas among the greenery are the first thing you see, nestled on the small Shikumen patio. The flower reverberates throughout the space; the entrance desks is a skeleton bud, ornate metal flowers embellish the panels, while open petals grown on a nearby wall. The central flower installation, in a curved form combining the feminine and masculine, is inspired by the hydrangea and becomes the visual focal point of the space.  

The spacious VIP room’s gradient high-gloss paint, combined with fabric gradient light fixtures creates a shimmering effect, providing a visual hierarchy and making the overall space more dynamic and balanced. The light temperature is mellow throughout, trickling from overhead floral light installations, leaving shadows on the velvet walls.

A bronze etched mirror commissioned by Charlotte Kingsnorth hangs behind the card table, around its edge a hand treatment evokes the hydrangea and visually presents a rumination on the transition of space and time through intricate textures and reductions.

Splashed bright colors and intriguing textures among the palette shades of yellow, green, red and brown. A visually nuanced and distinguished dining experience is rendered in delicate details and rich layers all synchronizing the natural beauty of the Hydrangea, Shanghai’s rich cultural charm without losing the understated elegance Japan does so well.

“ortensia”的设计深刻融入了绣球花的元素与石库门建筑的历史韵味，体现了巴黎法式情怀、日式精致及上海的独特魅力。二楼保留了石库门的复古风格，法式panel设计与建筑语言相呼应，展现了文化与奢侈的厚重感，营造出一种既传统又现代的用餐环境。

进入餐厅，首先映入眼帘的是石库门的小天井，绣球花若隐若现在绿植中，增添了自然的气息。进门的接待台仿佛一颗花骨朵，准备绽放，墙体上则长出了两片微微打开的花瓣，营造出一种生机勃勃的氛围。

中央大花装置以现代与古典相结合的曲线形态，灵感源自绣球花，成为空间的视觉焦点。金属小花配件巧妙点缀法式panel，增添优雅细节，进一步呼应绣球花的主题。餐桌底座的勃艮第红花体波浪造型，如同盛开的绣球花，生动展现出餐厅的核心理念。

大VIP包间的墙面设计以渐变高光漆为主，结合布料渐变灯光装置，创造出微光透出的效果，增添了视觉层次感，使得整体空间更为灵动和迷人。日式精致体现在细腻的设计细节与整体氛围的和谐，强调了空间的宁静与舒适感。

灯光设计方面，整体色温选择暖黄色，营造出柔和而温馨的氛围，让用餐的客户感受到被包裹的舒适感。二楼的光影设计，灯光从花艺装置上洒落，投射出柔美的光影在绒布墙面上，增添了空间的层次感与温暖感。锈镜墙面在小VIP包间中提升了氛围，通过反射窗外光影，拉近室内与室外的联系，使顾客仿佛置身异国情境。

空间艺术品方面，Charlotte Kingsnorth为“ortensia”量身打造了一面独特的铜镜。她运用不同的药水对镜面边缘进行腐蚀，创造出如绣球花包裹着镜面的效果。腐蚀后的复杂质感和颜色仿佛象征着时间与时空的不同转换，反映出绣球花的多样性与变化。挂在卡座后面的铜镜为整个空间赋予了新的意义，成为一处引人注目的艺术焦点。

在软装方面，整体色调为黄绿红棕，各种布料的明亮撞色与肌理增加了层次感。每个桌椅和灯具的设计均经过精心考量，突出细腻质感。大餐桌如盛开的花骨朵，小餐桌则用波光粼粼的纹理玻璃做桌面，让整个空间跟光影一起流动，形成独特的视觉体验。

整体设计传达出高端的用餐体验，让每位顾客感受到绣球花的自然之美与艺术情怀，体现了上海的魅力与文化背景交汇的丰富内涵。
