Pandora Box
Pandora Box is the interior design of a three-floor wine retail and tasting space in Taiwan. The building keeps its original spatial pattern, while the stairs are rotated to create a smoother traffic flow. Each floor is divided by function, with retail, display, counter, collection, gathering, light meal and private guest areas. A curved display cabinet and a marble bar counter are placed on the first floor. The wine collection is set deep inside the space to avoid western sunlight and to protect quality. Calm colors and warm wood tones give a quiet and elegant character.
Pandora Box Tavern by Shin-Lan Chao has been selected as an outstanding example of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Pandora Box Tavern received the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2022. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design competition that celebrates exceptional design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
