The overall design for T0 Japanese cuisine brand is inspired by Chinese five elements. Two elements, water and fire, is adopted in OMAKASE sushi and charcoal fire roasts.
In order to combine the attributes of Japanese cuisine with modern oriental touches inside Shanghai, oriental aura rather than its form is the priority.
How to plan the layout rationally with two different cuisine brands sharing one entrance and space, yet separately function, and also to create a sense of spaces within a space, layers of space, collision of materials different in texture, lighting in different ways, circulations in different orientation, and scenery is changing between open and enclosed spaces in a small interior.
Wood structure and different floor heights build up and divide interior space. Special materials and local resources were considered the priority of the interior decoration, with the lighting deliberately designed to make dialogue with its heaviness in a modern interpretation, besides, sustainability is another imperative factor we were deeply concerned about. We also collaborated with local artisans for traditional craftsmanship.
