Restaurant counter NikO NikO

Material: Pine timber beams
NikONiKO is the Japanese onomatopeia of the sound made when you smile. It is also the name of this Japanese bar specialized in sushi and cocktails, and the little sister of our restaurant design DokiDoki.
It was a complex 3D design and milling challenge using precast timer beams to create an industrial atmosphere with a warm vintage and rustic touch. There was an exhaustive research in the texture and finishing, turning the material around (which is mainly used in construction projects) with a mix of digital fabrication and craftwork.
