Ten Japanese Restaurant

From the dark street, faintly shimmering lights beckon you upstairs. Inside, you are transported...to another world. This was the challenge posed in the design brief for Ten, a sophisticated Japanese restaurant. The space is divided into night and day. In its front room, ceiling panels reflect light to evoke a starry sky and sense of endless space. In the day area, inspired by clouds, iridescent fabric highlights banquette seating, and the sushi bar appears as a clean white box. Transporting its customers, Ten has been operating at capacity since opening.
