About Teru Sushi Innenarchitektur eines Restaurants
Teru Sushi ist das Interieur eines Sushi-Restaurants in der Stadt Kitakyushu, Japan. Der 95 Quadratmeter große Raum entstand durch den Umbau eines bestehenden Gastronomiebetriebs. Die Gäste betreten ihn durch einen von der Teezeremonie inspirierten Gang, der die Vorfreude auf den Hauptraum steigert. Im Zentrum steht ein runder Tresen, der wie eine Bühne wirkt, sodass von jedem Platz aus ein freier Blick auf den Küchenchef möglich ist. Lehmwände, italienische Fliesen, Eschenholz und Keramikfliesen aus der Mino-Töpfertradition umgeben eine polierte Steinoberfläche. Die Beleuchtung setzt die Speisen und das Handwerk gekonnt in Szene.
