Tang Town Chinese Restaurant

Peng Space Interiors proudly delivered the complete interior design and fit-out for Tang Town Chinese Restaurant, an expansive 1,200 square meter dining destination located in The Dubai Mall. Our concept was to blend modern sophistication with traditional Chinese artistry, creating an atmosphere that is both immersive and culturally rich.

TANG TOWN is adorned in a vibrant blend of red and black hues, with cloud patterns elegantly gracing the rear pillar. Chinese-style traditional palace architectural models, suspended throughout, create an atmosphere that evokes a sense of liveliness and warmth. The ingenious design of these traditional architectural models adds an element of mystery and romance, enhanced by carefully positioned upshining lights.

Project Overview

Tang Town is envisioned not merely as a restaurant, but as a living work of art. Every corner of the space carries the imprint of artistry — the brushstrokes of painters, the imagination of sculptors, and the delicate craftsmanship of artisans. The interior unfolds like a cultural tapestry, where gastronomy meets fine art, and dining becomes an immersive aesthetic journey. Renowned artists were invited to collaborate, imbuing the project with layers of meaning and creativity. Among them is Zhang Changjiang, one of China’s celebrated contemporary artists, whose works lend the space both authenticity and artistic gravitas. Sculptural installations, bespoke murals, and handcrafted decorative pieces transform the restaurant into an ever-evolving gallery — a place where visitors are not just guests, but also

spectators of art.

Design Concept

Historical Background

The name Tang Town is rooted in the golden era of the Tang Dynasty (7th to 9th century), a time when China flourished as a cultural crossroads. Through the Silk Road, Chinese
civilization engaged in vibrant exchanges with the Arab world and European empires.
This project exemplifies our ability to merge cultural authenticity with modern interior innovation, offering guests a memorable fine-dining journey in one of Dubai’s most iconic destinations.

Balanced Atmosphere

Uniqueness

The project required a range of specialist and artisan skills, including custom carpentry and joinery for bespoke furniture, artisanal painting and murals to reflect Chinese heritage, and stone and tile craftsmanship for natural feature elements. Skilled work in metal detailing, ceiling treatments, and ambient lighting design was essential to achieve the bold visual impact, while upholstery and greenery integration added comfort and harmony.
Together, these crafts created a refined interior that blends cultural authenticity with modern sophistication.

High End

Dramatic and Amazing

A place where pristine ingredients, Eastern rhythm, refined craftsmanship, and thoughtful lifestyle converge into a dining experience worth remembering.

The red ceiling, Chinese architectural motifs, and symbolic décor elements (like bamboo, traditional art, and statues) immediately root the restaurant in Chinese heritage.

Customised Solutions

Mood and visual impact

This project exemplifies our ability to merge cultural authenticity with modern interior innovation, offering guests a memorable fine-dining journey in one of Dubai’s most iconic destinations.

Tang Town thus transcends its identity as a Chinese restaurant: it becomes a curated encounter between tradition and modernity, cuisine and culture, design and art — a symphony of disciplines that together redefine what luxury dining can be.
