African Braai Restaurant

Restaurant concept and interior

Intent

A restaurant built around fire and gathering. The room is kept dark so that flame, candlelight and planting carry the atmosphere.

Cultural references are handled as material and craft rather than decoration: woven textures, hand-finished surfaces, brass and greenery layered against a deep, quiet shell.

Scope

  • Concept development
  • Interior design
  • Material concept
  • Custom-made elements
  • Realisation

Materials

Blackened timber · Brass · Woven fibre · Stone · Planting

Furniture, lighting and objects
