About Taikan Fast Sushi Restaurantinterieur

Taikan Fast Sushi is een Japans restaurantinterieur van 350 vierkante meter. Het ontwerp biedt een praktische, moderne en gastvrije eetervaring. Dezelfde geprefabriceerde bekleding is toegepast op de vloer, wanden en het plafond, waardoor de uitstraling van een ruimte die volledig uit hout is opgebouwd wordt nagebootst. De keuze voor één enkel materiaal verlaagde de kosten en verkortte de bouwtijd. In de wand en het plafond ingebouwde LED-profielen doorkruisen de ruimte in lijnen die aan eetstokjes doen denken. Een groot buffet en verschillende bedieningspunten ondersteunen een snelle service. De tafels staan comfortabel uit elkaar en bieden plaats aan 183 personen.

Unique Properties: The Taikan restaurant proposes a practical, modern, and welcoming Japanese gastronomy experience, in 350 square meters with lighting and coating elements that refer to a cosmopolitan Japan. The interior design project was distinguished using the same prefabricated coating on the floor, ceiling and walls, which ensured speed in the work, cost reduction and a strong visual impact. LED bars embedded in the wall and ceiling were also used, creating a dynamic light effect, which refers to chopsticks.
Dimensions & Packaging: The restaurant has an area of 350 meters where there are 91 tables for 183 people.

Production Technology: We used the reference of the use of wood in Japanese constructions as part of the project. To do so, we recreated the look of a space entirely made of wood using vinyl flooring covering the floor, wall and ceiling. This solution created an extremely welcoming feeling, which surprised and is very easy to replicate in other stores. Lighting is also highlighted in the form of LED profiles that refer to chopsticks, which cross the ceiling and wall.
Design Challenge: The project lasted 2 months in the design phase and 3 months in the construction phase.
Research: We carried out research on Japanese architecture and its relationship with materials and the environment around it. The synergy and union between internal and external space, the balance between what is static and mobile.
Inspiration: The concept of Taikan was based on the union of traditional Japanese culture and architecture, with emphasis on open and hollow spaces, with a lot of use of wood, water and transparencies. We also use elements of a more urban and contemporary architecture, using concrete, matte black and geometric three-dimensional tiles. The way in which wood was used in Japanese constructions was a major advantage of the project, resulting in a prominent visual element for the space.
Project Duration: The project lasted 2 months in the design phase and 3 months in the civil work stage.
Operation Flow: The project was developed to allow a fast flow of service, with a large buffet bench and several service boxes. The space was designed to provide a comfortable distance between the tables, with a rich sensorial ambiance, with the sound of water, plants, and pleasant light.
