Where minimal structure meets playful attitude — LAB 10 redefines the Korean BBQ experience through stainless precision, modular lighting, and unapologetically futuristic design.
Located at Langham Place, the 2,800 sqft restaurant presents a new generation of dining where industrial rhythm, grid geometry, and luminous white surfaces converge into a bold, social dining lab. With LED typographic walls and lab-style seating modules, the space merges efficiency, clarity, and humor — a youthful expression of modern Korean cuisine.

CONCEPT & DESIGN INTENT
LAB 10 represents a new generation of Korean BBQ dining — a fusion of industrial aesthetics with social interactivity. Positioned at Langham Place, one of Hong Kong’s busiest lifestyle hubs, the restaurant was designed to appeal to a young, trend-driven audience seeking a modern and photogenic dining space.
The core idea was to deconstruct the typical BBQ setup and rebuild it into a modular, almost lab-like environment — bright, clean, and highly structured.
SPATIAL STRATEGY
The layout adopts a linear lab-grid system, emphasizing order and precision.
Two dominant BBQ rows form the central dining spine, framed by stainless steel structures that integrate air extraction, lighting, and planting.
Peripheral seating with integrated partitions supports both communal and semi-private dining.
The visual rhythm of grids, lighting, and furniture creates a sense of “controlled experiment,” consistent with the LAB 10 identity.

MATERIALITY & DETAILING
Industrial-grade stainless steel and high-density concrete tiles define the tactile identity of the space.
The combination of white enamel wall tiles, matte graphite tabletops, and galvanized chairs produces a cool, urban character.
Custom LED typography wall signage injects humor and lightness into the otherwise laboratory-like precision.
Strategically placed greenery and metal planters soften the rigidity of the grid system.
PROJECT GOALS & OUTCOMES
The design successfully positioned LAB 10 as a bold redefinition of Korean BBQ culture, making it visually iconic and instantly recognizable.
Its clean geometry and futuristic lighting became social media highlights, elevating the brand’s awareness among young urban diners.
Operationally, the spatial arrangement optimized smoke extraction and traffic flow, aligning functionality with aesthetic minimalism.
COLLABORATION & CONSTRAINTS
Despite a limited renovation timeframe (2.5 months), the design team coordinated closely with MEP engineers and exhaust specialists to integrate concealed ducting within the exposed industrial ceiling.
The precision of fabrication — particularly the alignment of LED grid structures — required tight coordination between contractor and designer to maintain visual symmetry and safety standards.
