Liz Dolinar: Looking Out Week 6

This is the Ikibana Paral Restaurant in Barcelona, Spain. Designed by El Equipo Creativo in 2012, the menu and architecture are a fusion of Japanese and Brazilian elements. The large wooden ribbons that form the ceiling are the branches of a forest canopy, a nod to the emphasis that both cultures place on nature and their respective landscapes. The wood pieces create a great continuity throughout the space and provide visual interest as well as a feeling of intimacy in the restaurant.
