Gumgum Garden
Gumgum Garden is a restaurant and pub set on the basement floor of a building in Taipei, Taiwan. The interior covers 530 square metres and recreates the atmosphere of a tropical beach bar inside a city basement. The space is divided into five zones: lounge in the sand, island beach bar, rock cave dining, garden cafe and jungle seat box. Exotic plants, aged wood and real coral sand are used throughout the interior. Returning guests can experience a different setting on each visit. The design offers a relaxing place to meet, dine and drink after a long day.
Gumgum Garden Restaurant Pub by Vincent Hsieh was identified as a creative example of architectural design by the A' Design Awards. Gumgum Garden Restaurant Pub won the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2022. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design award that honors outstanding design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
