Building History:

103 3rd Avenue SE has been home to a number of restaurants throughout the years, notably Jade Palace in the 1960s and Soluxe Restaurant following that. The building was bought by Cetus Developments just a few years ago.

In the 1960s, the most notable commercial buildings were restaurants. New one- and two- storey structures were built, and existing buildings also adapted, to create attractive dining and entertainment destinations. They drew attention with exuberant, projecting rooftop or wall signs with Chinese characters and typefaces resembling calligraphy, and traditional imagery.

When reinterpreting the space Certus looked to the Xian Tian Di Shopping Centre, a trendy area in the heart of Shanghai. It is well-known for its unique blend of historic and modern elements.
