Traditional culture meets the international design language.

Located within Melbourne’s largest and most luxurious shopping precinct, Lanzhou Chadstone makes a striking brand impact.

With the goal of creating a space that imbues traditional Chinese culture and symbols with an international design language, Lanzhou Chadstone is a new take on crafted noodle-house customer experiences.

By re-exploring traditional compositions and architectural forms, the design team has created a contemporary feel that establishes the Lanzhou brand voice in Melbourne.

Operational pace and efficiency were paramount to the client, and the team has delivered a smart floor plan that maximises guest seating while delivering efficient back-of-house operations, including takeaway and delivery staging areas to meet modern food delivery demands.
