BigTop 餐厅丨印度班加罗尔丨Multitude Of Sins

Multitude Of Sins推出的BigTop是一家农场直供餐厅，它脱胎于怀旧与旅行的酿造炉，并被冠以“马戏团食堂”之名。马戏团是大张旗鼓的盛会，团员们在此上演远离世俗侵扰的奇观。

Multitude Of Sins presents BigTop, a farm-to-table eatery born from the brewing cauldron of nostalgia and travel, and christened as The Circus Canteen. The circus is seen as an event of fanfare, wherein troop members put together a spectacle far removed from the clutches of the mundane.

BigTop的构思过程到处都是别出心裁。从表面装饰、定制照明、艺术装置到家具，每个元素都是从全市废物捐赠活动中精心挑选而出；这些从废品市场和垃圾场淘来的宝藏只有不到十分之一是较新的材料。

BigTop has been conceived with unconventionality helming the process. Each element, from surface finishes, custom lighting, and art installations, to furniture, has been curated from a city-wide waste donation drive; treasures wrought from salvage markets and dumping yards with less than 10% of the material being freshly sourced.

在班加罗尔创意马戏团（Bangalore Creative Circus）艺术社区的支持下，这个场所象征着无拘无束的创意表达，展现在色调、纹理和定制的回收再造装置形式之中。每一张桌子都封藏了一种时空旅行的体验，废弃品重新化身为雕塑品一般的存在，并兼具实用性。

Graced by the artistic community of Bangalore Creative Circus, this venue is emblematic of unshackled creative expression that manifests as hues, textures, and bespoke upcycled installations. Each table encapsulates a transportive experience, ensuring that the waste dons a reimagined sculptural presence entwined with utility.

入口处的一系列拱门由废金属组成，沐浴在活泼的蓝绿色调中。通道轴线点缀着由自行车链条和金属锉屑制成的吊灯，两侧则是回收再造的汽车前大灯，作为灯具使用。整体地面由丢弃的样品瓷砖拼接而成，灵感来自俄罗斯方块。废弃壁纸色块拼贴墙为食品柜提供了一个夺人眼球的背景，充满色彩和图案的交织。核心拼贴墙由电子垃圾、卫生洁具和废弃家具混合而成，就像一个异想天开的废品拼图。

The series of arches at the entrance is composed of scrap metal bathed in a lively teal hue. The passageway axis is dotted with grunge chandeliers consisting of bike chains and metal filings, flanked by upcycled vehicle headlights that pose as luminaires. The overarching flooring is an ensemble of discarded display samples pieced together in a Tetris-inspired fashion. A patchwork collage of discarded wallpaper swatches creates a riveting backdrop to the food counter, imbuing it with an interplay of colour and pattern. The focal collage wall is a mishmash of e-waste, sanitary fixtures, and discarded furniture that resembles a whimsically imagined jigsaw of waste.

BigTop项目是一座灯塔，它传递着迫切的环保信号，但它为自己披上了艺术的外衣，同时也向最终使用者揭示了自己的身份。这里是不合群之人的归宿，古怪的事物在这里相遇！

Project BigTop is the beacon of a pressing environmental message, yet it garbs itself in an artistic mien, while revealing its identity to its end-users. It is a space for misfits, where oddities belong serendipitously!
