The underlying storyline: Decoding Modern India  A time-honoured culinary tradition, Indian cuisine is a gateway to a multitude of experiences. Traditionally, food was not just for sustenance but was a means of hospitality and historical influences. Decoding the craft that went behind, the ability to blend the flavours harmoniously and celebrate the diversity, we crafted narrative-weaving stories that aimed to be a testament to this enchanting power. The elements that became part of the narrative reflected the intricate artistry and cultural richness.  Ishita Sitwala Ishita Sitwala Design Framework With the genesis in Jaipur, the design ideology of Idylll revolves around establishing a distinct presence in urban Benga...

The cafe is focused on the street food format.    I decided to focus on a non-standard combination of shades - a deep dark blue-green background and bright red-orange colors. This decision manifests itself both in the shades of the color of the walls, and in the pieces of furniture and art.   Thanks to this, we managed to reflect the specifics of the cafe - dynamics, individuality, hospitality. In my work, I often look for non-trivial color combinations to convey the main idea.    The main idea of this project is to make a bright, memorable place where visitors would feel comfortable and pleasant. The kind of space that makes you want to come back again.   The inspiration for the creation of this place was the... More

La Cubanita is an extension of La Bodeguita Del Medio, a mainstay of Kortrijk’s nightlife scene. We worked with the owners to craft a space that embodied their multicultural heritage, creating an immersive guest experience that blends Cuban and Eastern motifs. Frans Parthesius The design is conceived as a box inside a box that turns a leftover space into a new part of the palimpsest, completely isolated—physically, aesthetically and acoustically—from its surroundings. A circular opening cut directly out of the ceiling slab redefines the irregular pentagonal plan, creating a center of gravity that shapes a coherent spatial experience. The cutout lends a defining sculptural presence to the space and offers glimpses ups... More

The traditional retail store of miyama is expanded to Shin Kong Place in Suzhou. The owner wants to design a high-quality space for presentation and sake tasting at the new store. Four freezers need to be placed and the public exhibition zone above 2.4 meters cannot be changed which is required by property management, so the main design goal is to utilize the three walls in the 30 square meter space so as to make exhibition express its theme by itself. Xu Yingda Sake is incredible liquid made from rice and water. It is Japanese typical alcoholic drink with local characteristics. We find a balance between sake bottles and flat eaves of verandas in Japanese architecture when exploring how to arrange sake in the space based on sake itsel... More

It is an elegant, refined, authentic place. ©CHPaysan The layout draws from the customs of beautiful French restaurants. The lines of the circle booths with their delicate velvet contrast with the struct... More

For those who frequent this eclectic Chicago bar/restaurant, most will agree that, in addition to great food, drink and conversation, its true magic and charm lies in its ever-changing quirky persona.  Over time, various updates have been made to improve the space while other things have fallen into increasingly-poor shape due to the day-to-day business of keeping the neighborhood happy on their bar stools. The space, it seemed, needed a jump-start to reinvigorate the spirit on which it had always prided itself. As a result, the need for yet another change became evident, one which would rejuvenate the space while remaining open to evolution and change, one which would define the bar’s character clearly without fixing it...
