Smoke Exhaust and Air Conditioning: Exposed MEP in Restaurants

Show a Taiwanese restaurant interior where the heavy mechanical services are exposed and organised rather than hidden. Render a large stainless extract hood over the cooking line with its duct rising and running horizontally across the ceiling to the rear wall, the whole run detailed cleanly: consistent diameter, neat welded joints, proper supports at even spacing, and a matching finish. Run the air-conditioning refrigerant lines and the sprinkler main parallel to it on a shared datum so the ceiling reads as a deliberate array of lines rather than a tangle. Paint the ceiling slab and all remaining structure a single dark tone so the stainless services stand out as the intended feature. Show track lighting mounted on the same structural rhythm. Below, keep the dining area simple — timber tables, simple chairs, a tiled floor — so the ceiling is clearly the composition. Include a grease trap access panel and a clearly labelled isolation switch as honest working details. Show warm light on the tables and cooler light on the services. Photorealistic, industrial but disciplined, eye-level view.
