Collaborating with Jonathan Morr of BondST, our mission was to encapsulate the quintessential essence of the BondST experience while introducing a fresh and innovative aesthetic to propel the brand forward into its next evolution.

Subtle nods to Japanese style and materiality are balanced with a whimsical use of custom JBI designed decorative light fixtures acting as lanterns, and playful textiles on the custom designed upholstered furnishings.

A secluded Japanese garden pavilion tucked away from the bustling surroundings; its entrance concealed by a veil of lush bamboo foliage. As you approach, the soft glow of modern Japanese lanterns guides your way through the tranquil sanctuary. Much like the innovative BondST menu, the pavilion itself is a blend of traditional Japanese architecture and contemporary design, with clean lines and minimalistic yet elegant features. Surrounded by lush bamboo, white oak wood planks and Japanese rice paper operable screens, the atmosphere is serene and romantic - a hidden oasis.
