Nestled within The Henderson in Central Hong Kong, the building designed by Zaha Hadid Architects, this venue is part of a visionary development featuring a striking, sculptural exterior, set to become the next iconic symbol in the city’s skyline. Designed by AB Concept’s Associate Rex Wang and his team, this immersive dining venue redefines gastronomy as a dramatic multisensory performance, uniting Chef Akira Back’s bold vision with AB Concept’s signature approach to emotive design storytelling.
Rooted in Chef Akira Back’s cultural background and elevated through the elegance of Japanese artistry, the ‘Culinary Symphony’ concept unfolds as a bold, multisensory journey. The restaurant becomes a theatre of the present day, positioning its guests as protagonists within VIP-inspired settings that exude both refinement and theatrical intensity. The atmosphere strikes a harmonious balance between tradition and innovation, appealing to a diverse clientele.
The journey begins with a bold architectural statement: a swirling, hand-forged metal vortex that anchors the entrance, connecting ceiling to floor in a powerful gesture of energy and movement. This sculptural threshold serves as both a visual emblem of Akira Back’s brand and a moment of transformation, blurring the line between space and spectacle.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Hotel Designs.
