Meule 餐厅丨韩国首尔丨YellowPaper

Meule 是一家位于韩国首尔的极简餐厅，由当地设计事务所Yellow Paper设计。Meule 从莫奈著名的 “干草堆 ”系列中汲取灵感。在法语中，“Meule ”是干草堆的意思，这个名字概括了餐厅的精髓，餐厅里的时令食品反映了时间的流逝，就像莫奈的画作一样。

Meule is a minimal restaurant located in Seoul, South Korea, designed by yellow paper. Meule draws inspiration from Claude Monet’s renowned ‘Haystacks’ series (1890-91). The name “Meule,” which means haystack in French, encapsulates the essence of the restaurant, where seasonal foods reflect the passage of time, much like Monet’s paintings.

Meule 餐厅的内部空间由两根代表莫奈草垛系列的柱子构成，柱子由彩色不锈钢制成。一张长长的公共餐桌是整个空间的中心，邀请客人聚集在一起共享美食。传统的韩国韩纸环绕整个空间，捕捉莫奈作品中色彩和光线的微妙变化。

The interior of Meule features a space defined by two columns representing haystacks from Monet’s series, crafted from color stainless steel. A long communal table serves as the centerpiece, inviting guests to gather and share meals. Traditional Korean hanji paper surrounds the space, capturing the subtle changes in color and light depicted in Monet’s work.

这种涂漆韩纸采用天然材料和传统工艺制成，全天候改变着空间氛围，与 “干草堆 ”画作中自然光线的微妙变化相映成趣。韩纸独特的质地和香味进一步烘托了餐厅的氛围。除了美观之外，Meule餐厅的韩纸和木格子窗还具有实用功能。

This lacquered hanji, made from natural materials using traditional techniques, transforms the ambiance throughout the day, mirroring the delicate shifts in natural light seen in the ‘Haystacks’ paintings. The unique texture and scent of the hanji further enhance the restaurant’s atmosphere. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the hanji and wooden lattice windows at Meule serve a practical purpose.

餐厅位于一栋用钢架加固的老建筑内，整个空间都暴露出H形梁。为了最大限度地增加储物空间并保持视觉上的和谐，餐厅将回收木材制成的嵌入式货架与H形梁形成的空间融为一体。格子窗隐藏了不必要的元素，让顾客能够充分欣赏到精心设计的内部空间。

The restaurant is housed in an old building reinforced with steel frames, exposing H-beams throughout the space. To maximize storage and maintain visual harmony, recessed shelves made from reclaimed wood were integrated into the space created by the H-beams. Lattice windows conceal unnecessary elements, allowing customers to fully appreciate the thoughtfully designed interior.
