Entry DescriptionFor our project, we drew profound inspiration from the enchanting essence of “Tokyo at Midnight,” where each corner of the city reveals a unique story, intricately woven through the dynamic interplay of light and shadow. This concept guided every aspect of our design, resulting in an immersive environment that captivates and intrigues.
Lighting serves as a pivotal element in our vision, establishing an inviting yet mysterious atmosphere. We meticulously crafted layers of illumination, highlighting hidden details that surprise and delight diners. This approach not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also enriches the overall dining experience, encouraging guests to explore and engage with their surroundings.
In essence, our design transforms the dining space into a narrative journey, where each moment is illuminated by the magic of Tokyo’s nocturnal charm.
Sustainability ApproachAs part of our minimalist approach to lighting, light fittings are carefully located to illuminate only specific areas.
The lighting products have been sourced with the intention of being repairable and renewable with a warranty of 20 years.
