The project translates an abstract culinary inspiration into a spatial experience with clarity and elegance. The circular plan reflecting sushi form is both conceptually symbolic and functionally effective, fostering flow and harmony. The material palette—wood, marble, and warm tones—creates a sophisticated atmosphere that blends Japanese restraint with contemporary luxury. The interior renderings display balanced composition and attention to texture, light, and rhythm.
My advice is to refine how the Japanese cultural essence extends beyond form and material—perhaps through spatial sequencing, sensory elements, or cultural storytelling. Exploring transitions between dining, relaxation, and circulation zones could elevate the narrative depth. A more articulated lighting hierarchy would also enhance ambiance and highlight craftsmanship.
