Hatched at Holland Avenue
A raíz de la popularidad del primer restaurante Hatched en Singapur y Barcelona, el colectivo Outofstock recibió el encargo de diseñar un segundo restaurante en 267 Holland Avenue de Singapur. Ubicado en un histórico local comercial de dos pisos en Holland Village, el diseño de este restaurante temático de desayunos abierto las 24 horas se basó en el concepto de un nido. La intención era incluir más color y elementos lúdicos en el nuevo restaurante, creando una atmósfera cálida y acogedora. La fachada nido se realizó con cuerdas trenzadas amarillas tejidas en torno a un marco de acero con agujeros cortados con láser. Esta estructura de acero también sostiene los paneles de vidrio y la puerta de madera. La barra del bar se compone de recortes de tablas de madera de teca. Las tablas del suelo componen un patrón en espina de pescado con recortes triangulares.

Following the popularity of the first Hatched restaurant, Singapore and Barcelona based design collective Outofstock was recently commissioned to design a second restaurant at 267 Holland Avenue, Singapore.
Located in a two-storey historical shophouse in Holland Village, the design of this egg-themed, all-day breakfast restaurant is based on the concept of a nest. The intention behind the design was to inject more colour and playful elements into the new restaurant, building upon the warm and cozy barn house atmosphere of the original establishment, also designed by Outofstock.
The nest facade was realized with yellow braided rope woven around a steel frame with laser-cut holes. This steel frame also holds up the glass panels and a floor-sprung rough-sawn timber door.
The restaurant uses mostly original lighting and furniture designed by Outofstock, such as the Naked chair, produced by Bolia and the Biscuit stool and table, produced by Environment.
The bar counter is composed of offcuts from teak wood floorboards. The floorboards were used to compose a herring bone pattern, hence the almost perfect triangular offcuts.
Abstract wall lighting fixtures which could be interpreted as hatching eggs or peeled potatoes act as conversation pieces on the upper floor of the restaurant.
