Movie investment and production company VShine Brothers has opened an oyster bar in Beijing.

Its VShine Oyster Bar features interior design by A+A Workshop Design, Beijing, inspired by a marine concept.

A+A Workshop Design says the aim was to create “historical charm” from the 1930s-1940s era. “We use some marine elements such as a cruiseship door, a scuttle, reef stone … the materials used include brass, brick wall, walnut timber wall panels and ceramic tiles.”

The floor combines marble mosaic and wood, while the ceiling is made of vintage tin-tiles.

There is a sculptural installation at the entrance – a fake reef stone made of concrete studded with oyster shells.

At the end of a corridor is a hidden door, which leads to a cigar room with industrial pendant lighting and a vintage Chesterfield sofa as decoration.

Another touch is glass display cabinets with items including a full suit of armour.

VShine Brothers was established as Wei Shi Brothers in 2011 and is now a group of companies working in the movie, television and internet sectors. It even has a clothing brand with movie star endorsements.
