NAMBENTô is a reinterpretation of traditional Vietnamese food, in a fast feast (we made this word up) setting. Here, a simple bowl of rice is given color with a variety of toppings. Similarly, the understated wooden interior is brought to life with a flexible, festive ceiling system.
Visual motif inspired by Vietnamese folk games, and the menu.
Stacking bowls like a bento.
The ceiling system adapts to different occasions. For example, red and gold for Lunar New Year.
We developed a special rattan texture, a traditional Vietnamese material, on the cement wall.
