The Look of Being Made Imperfect: Thematic decoration of a Vietnamese restaurant

A space demonstrating common mistakes: the ceiling is covered with hundreds of red plastic lanterns, a row of conical hats is nailed to the wall, an entire wall is covered with bamboo veneer, and plastic lotus flowers and tourist souvenirs are placed in the corner, with no architectural framework whatsoever. Modern Indochinese style calls for a dialogue between architecture and craftsmanship, not a堆 of tourist symbols.
Avoid: Treating this image as a positive example, using conical hats and national flag colors as decoration, imitating bamboo and lacquerware with plastic and printed materials, or having so many lanterns that they obscure the ceiling.

一個示範錯誤的空間:天花掛滿上百盞紅色塑膠燈籠、牆上釘著一排斗笠、整面牆貼滿竹子貼皮、角落擺著塑膠蓮花與旅遊紀念品,沒有任何建築骨架可言。現代印度支那要的是建築與工藝的對話,不是觀光符號的堆疊。避免:把這個畫面當成正面示範、用斗笠與國旗色當裝飾、使用塑膠與印刷品模仿竹木與漆器、讓燈籠的數量多到遮住天花。
