Petit Hunan, a contemporary reinterpretation of Grupo Hunan’s first restaurant (1993), channels French Art Deco elegance through sculptural geometries and layered materiality. References to traditional Chinese design merge with rich textures, fluid proportions, and architectural restraint. Challenges of limited visibility and fragmented access became catalysts for transformation, with terraces, redefined circulation, and passive ventilation. Inside, double-height volumes, a sculptural wine cellar, and refined materials create a warm yet dramatic atmosphere for contemporary hospitality.
