The floating restaurant gracefully merges architecture and nature through its floral conceit.
The restaurant itself is composed of bamboo, a renewable material renowned for its natural strength and flexibility.
Paired with its organic forms, Nelumbos bamboo structure offers further proof of its sustainable and naturalistic design.
Beyond being architecturally innovative, Nelumbo is intended to be a multifaceted dining experience.
The restaurants top floor houses a relaxing coffee shop, topped with a glass dome skylight.
The restaurants visual allure, however, becomes most apparent in the evening.
With its interior fully illuminated, the restaurant casts a subtle glow across the water.
Liyanage used the 3D model and visuals programs Sketchup and Vray 6 to create his Nelumbo renders.
