明治时代，是日本开放改革之始，引进欧洲文化思想，并发展出融汇了西式与日本和风的设计风格。日式餐厅Maison Meiji的室内设计概念就是来自日本明治、昭和、大正时代的建筑特色，置身其中彷如回到19世纪的日本，体验那份和洋折衷的独特风尚。位于湾仔茂萝街一座二级历史建筑的Maison Meiji，以日式洋食、甜品与烧酌为主要食品菜式。明治、昭和、大正时代的装潢风格正好与日式洋食菜式，完美地相互呼应着，而餐厅更特别地保留了历史建筑的红砖墙和拱门，古老的砖墙带有一种粗犷的纯朴魅力，把不同装潢的区域空间点缀得更见个性及历史意义。

Maison Meiji, a new retro-inspired restaurant housed in a historic tong-lau in Wan Chai, brushes shoulders with the impactful western influences of Meiji Restoration and Taisho period’s ephemeral romantic glamour in a time-travelling experience that showcases the warm and honest flair that once defined the Showa era. Tucked away in a revitalised Grade II building in the secluded Mallory Street, the eclectic dining hotspot serving refined Western-Japanese cuisine is a celebration of an all-encompassing experience of Japan’s transformative Meiji era. Most original architectural details of the revered site such as the tactile red bricks and sculptural arches are carefully preserved to acknowledge the building’s heritage and character.

餐厅分成几个区域：咖啡厅、酒吧区、主餐厅及VIP房，均以不同色调和木材制成的家俱及装潢，打造出各具特色但又感觉一致的室内环境。主餐厅区的设计灵感来自明治时期，梳化雅座、由小地砖砌成的几何图案花纹地面、日本墙纸及弧形线条木制家俱等，都是充分表现了欧洲的怀旧品味，同时配合上日本的精致简约及细节讲究，令看似不花巧的装潢，实际是设计师在色彩及线条的运用上造出了衬托对比，令整体视觉更见平衡耐看。

The eatery-bar-cafe features five alluring rooms and an open area where the spirit of cultural exchange is gracefully crowned, each designated as an open bar, a dining area, a VIP room, as well as a music bar dedicated to vinyl records. Unite Unit has skillfully mastered its signature blending on materials for an ambience that feels authentic to the historic location pampering through bold wooden structures, Japanese wall coverings, European lighting fixtures, wood carved furniture, nostalgic appointments, solid wood bending, and illuminated panels covered in Japanese washi paper. The design team also overcame the challenges, without utilising a single nail or glue on all walls and ceilings.

设计师把大正时期的欧陆式浪漫建筑风格带到唱片酒吧区，方格大窗、方格酒架、方格小酒桌等，营造出硬朗的个性，配以欧洲经典梳化，令散发着豪迈爽朗的气派；放满怀旧唱片的展示柜是一大亮点，让酒吧别有一份浪漫情调。来到咖啡厅，是个开放式空间，昭和时期的装潢风貌活现眼前，咖啡吧造型简约而独特，银白色的发光天幕，灵感启发自日本商店街的天幕；同时，前方是富有和式家居感的用餐区，食客在真皮坐垫上席地而坐，这个配置完美地示范了和洋折衷的风格，亦打造出日常生活的那份率真随性。

The open area where you can indulge in freshly brewed coffee and tea employs a sophisticated design scheme composed of wood, touches of stainless steel, green glazed tiles to create a quaint and intimate atmosphere that allows the Showa influences to shine. Conjuring up a strong sense of place, the illuminated curved canopy is inspired by shōtengai, the Japanese local market streets. The dynamic installation also adds layers of translucency and dimension to the space.
