Knot Knot Restaurant and Cafe

Knot Knot

Knot Knot is a Japanese and western dessert and cake cafe in Guangzhou, China, with an interior of 1400 square feet. The design is inspired by surreal art and turns the cafe into a small art gallery. Italian turquoise handmade tiles and a dark walnut doorframe mark the open entrance, which leads to the cake display area and a marble bar. Classic frames with paintings, woodcarving details, arch windows, two Roman columns and a chandelier are used throughout. Two metal flower racks bring outdoor planting inside. A mirror at the end of the space creates repeated reflections.

Knot Knot Restaurant and Cafe by Vincent Chi-Wai Chiang was recognized as an innovative representation of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Knot Knot Restaurant and Cafe was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2020. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design award which rewards exceptional design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
