Sushihana Downtown

Sushihana Downtown is the second Japanese restaurant we design for the same company. In the first work we developed a project based on references in the traditional elements of Japanese architecture and in the contemporary language of architecture. The concept was based on stratifying uses and diversifying sensory experiences through the chromatic transition between the restaurant spaces. A dark color in the circulation and service areas, and a light color in the meal areas. In this project we follow the same concept of the first restaurant with the intention of maintaining an identity and relation between the two restaurants. The space destined for the restaurant was an old art gallery in a building from the beginning of the 20th century on Rua Galleries de Paris in the center of Oporto. A complex space, quite compartmentalized, and divided into two floors, one of them a basement. The concept of the two works is based on the same principles due to the premise of the relationship of identity between the two spaces. The slatted plans in wood, the design of a traditional Japanese drawing cut into the ceiling and wall panels of the room, and the chromatic transition are equally present in this project.
