KAAYOO RESTAURANT
Kasambagan, Cebu City
The concept for this restaurant is derived from the idea of “BEAUTY IN THE IMPERFECTION”. It explores the paradox of being carelessly careful, thoughtlessly thoughtful and unconsciously conscious.
With the use of brick, cement and wood as our main design materials, we are able to strip down and lay bare the concept that we have in mind. We are able to pull-off this look of being “done but not quite”. We made it feel like we peeled off the walls of its true nature and expose the true identity of the space.
We have also used the power of the mirrors to create an illusion of a much bigger space and with this approach, we are able to use the mirrors as “portals” into what seems like “another” space, an “inception” if you will.
As a restaurant, this space offers a fresh take on the wide array of Filipino dishes as it also transforms into a bar that offers delectable cocktails and drinks best suited for the Cebuanos’ ever evolving food and beverage culture.
Please look forward to the opening of Kaayoo Restaurant, opening very very soon!
