Vegetable House

VEGETABLE HOUSE, CHINA

Vegetable House is a tea store, vegetarian shop, and restaurant located in Nanjing, China. It is situated in a former Machine Tool Factory. During the renovation, Vegetable House preserved its original steel structure and incorporated a new spatial design. The façade of the store is made of glass, providing diners with a view of the outdoor scenery. Green plants are abundantly present throughout, and the flooring is made of birch, pine, and other materials, creating a delightful experience. The choice of other locally sourced virgin materials helps reduce embodied energy and carbon emissions.
