Coinciding with the World Architecture Festival in Singapore, its interior design equivalent INSIDE Festival has chosen Hong Kong-based Joyce Wang Interiors as the winners of the World Interior of the Year 2014 with its stunning design for high-end restaurant MOTT32. Also located in Hong Kong, the restaurant is housed in a former storage vault that guarded the priceless heirlooms of wealthy Chinese immigrants, and thus the design takes cues from Western and Chinese culture while embracing the underground industrial nature of the space, incorporating decorative details such as Chinese propaganda posters, forgotten heirlooms and metal cages as light fittings.
