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 featured as an exceptional representation of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Gumgum Garden Restaurant Pub earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2022. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design prize that rewards superior design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
