Targa, Wiener Stuhl and N.18 by Gebrüder Thonet Vienna GmbH for the exclusive Rêver restaurant in Guangzhou
Three icons by Gebrüder Thonet Vienna, Targa upholstered furniture by GamFratesi, Wiener Stuhl chairs and N.18 stools decorate the exclusive Rêver restaurant in Guangzhou, a Chinese port city that extends northwest of Hong Kong on the Pearl River. The space, with a unique 360-degree view of the metropolis skyline, is located right on the south bank of the river, just a few steps from the lively Tianhe district, with a good view of it.
The name, Rêver, “dream” in French, is symbolic. Its spelling refers to the word river in English while its Chinese name, 玥 means “sacred pearl in the sky” with a pronunciation similar to the Chinese word 粵, an abbreviation for Canton, another name of Guangzhou. The name, therefore, perfectly embodies the dream of the Rêver team: to celebrate the Pearl River flowing through southern China with the first modern, high-quality French restaurant in the city. Over the millennia, the Pearl River has been able to grow excellent ingredients for delicate Cantonese cuisine.
