Located on the Tongji University campus, the chic ???BAOBAO restaurant places the open kitchen within a greenhouse -like structure, giving patrons a full view of the baozi-making process through glazed windows. The 62-square-meter space is filled with natural light and brings the campus’ leafy surroundings indoors through full-height windows and the addition of indoor plants and green tiles. Hanging bulb lights illuminate the interior and complement the minimalist vibe of the timber house-like frameworks.

Seating is also extended to the outdoors with a patio lined with bluestone cobbles and shielded with angled solar shades decorated with ???BAOBAO graphics. “Linehouse created a spatial narrative that married with the brand’s ethos: from garden to plate, using the freshest vegetables in handcrafted baozi,” write the designers. “In doing so they played with the concept of inserting a glass greenhouse building for the exhibition and growth of plants.” + Linehouse Via ArchDaily Images via Linehouse © Dirk Weiblen
