Moshi
Moshi by Naomi
By
Josie Wu
Translated by Patricia Li
A matriarch of Taipei's lounge scene, Naomi is taking
advantage of the reputation she has established, and
is marking the first-year celebration of her lounge
opening by unveiling a sister establishment on DaAn
Road.
Moshi
Moshi by Naomi--a dining room, lounge, and club--takes
Taipei's nightlife in a fresh, new direction.
Designer
Du Bian Zhi Zhao has transformed this two-story building
with astonishing modern flair. Bricks accent the layered
gray concrete exterior. Visible through the second-story
full glass pane are flashing blue strobe lights. Black
wood paneling adds a touch of elegance. The calm, cool
exterior makes the interior all the more mysterious.
| Enter
Moshi Moshi and you become the essence of the design.
A row of pillars lines the corridor with a mirrored
wall waiting at the end. The club atmosphere is
at once intoxicatingly narcissistic and voyeuristic.
The high black ceiling compliments the white and
gray interior. Suspended from the second floor ceiling,
a crystal chandelier lends an air of grace in the
blue lighting. The long bar extends on the first
floor as does a long antique sofa. |
 |
Take
the stairs to the second-floor VIP area where white
curtains wall off private spaces and pure white sofas
invite you to linger. A row of sofas looks like a long
bed with pure white throw pillows to cuddle. This redefines
Taipei's club scene. A contrast to Naomi's northern
European coziness, Moshi Moshi by Naomi is cool, giving
traditional style a modern edge. It retains hints of
the elegant and traditional, remarkably beautiful in
the daylight hours or at night.
