Abshar

Abshar Restaurant represents a refined fusion of two seemingly contrasting yet deeply complementary concepts: the restaurant as a symbol of urban life, and the waterfall as an enduring symbol of untouched nature. The project was conceived with the clear intention of crafting a spatial experience where the vibrancy, energy, and dynamism of the city coexist with the calm, serenity, and timeless rhythm of nature. In doing so, the design offers visitors a setting that does not merely juxtapose these two elements, but allows them to flow into one another, producing a unique and memorable atmosphere of harmony.

The main design concept originates from the simplest yet most essential component of a waterfall: the water droplet. This elemental form, associated with purity, fluidity, and continuity, was first explored in two-dimensional studies and later transformed into vertical, three-dimensional structures that rise throughout the site. These dynamic forms, reminiscent of abstract trees or organic sculptures, not only provide necessary functions such as shade, shelter, and orientation, but also introduce a strong symbolic presence of nature within the architectural composition.

The careful organization of pathways, circulation routes, and resting points ensures that visitors move through the project in a rhythm aligned with the sequence of these vertical elements. Walking and pausing become an orchestrated experience, echoing the flow of water and the pauses of droplets in motion. In this way, Abshar Restaurant emerges as more than just a dining space: it becomes a landscape of encounter, a stage where the city’s pulse meets the stillness of nature. The result is an environment that is at once vibrant and serene, urban yet natural, offering an architectural narrative of balance and coexistence.
