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.

The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, meritocratic, just and fair design recognition program which rewards outstanding design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
