Maguro by MOI Interior Design
By painting the waves with art paint and matching the patterned wallpaper to the waves in the Ukiyo-e style
When you enter the restaurant, the wall to the left is covered with dark blue wallpaper that resembles the waves of Ukiyo-e art. The atmosphere is intimate and charming. The dining area features an eight-meter-long wall designed to look like a wave and impress diners from the moment they enter. Wave-like effects are caused by the gradual blurring of blue and white areas in Italian art paint.
A curved false ceiling that appears like waves was also created by extending the wall to the ceiling. Its decor is inspired by the sea, providing patrons with the sense that they are near the ocean and surrounded by fresh seafood.
Success on the Fish Scale Wall symbolizes business success, and craftsmanship on the Cabinet Design signifies quality. Among the restaurant's other features is the bar area, where the sushi chef converses with customers while preparing dishes.
It is the black fish scale tiles on the wall and the black wood stripes on the bar that complement each other and add to the restaurant's style. In the arrangement of fish scale tiles, we see the fish moving upward, symbolizing the restaurant's business growing and becoming more distinctive.
In addition, the designer also designed the cabinets in the bar area in the shape of a kimono, which appears to embrace the bar area with open arms.
The sushi chef usually stands in the middle of the cabinets and uses the cabinets behind him as a backdrop to show the customers his sincerity in cooking, so that they can feel the spirit of the craftsman and express the "heart" of the sushi chef.
The Japanese term "maguro" refers to the genus of "true tunas". Tuna is called hon maguro in Japanese, which literally means “genuine”. The restaurant is divided into two sections by a structural column in the middle, which divides the restaurant into two. The designer added a set of arched wooden frames here. You will find the heart of the Tuna Maguro, which is decorated with sweeping lines and wood colors that connect both sides of the restaurant. These frames are the defining features of the restaurant. The areas on both sides were reconnected through light wood colour and curved lines. This location is the core of the restaurant, as well as the meaning of "Hon Maguro", which is a metaphor for the restaurant's heart.
