Fujijama Steakhouse is a Japanese hibachi restaurant located in Indianapolis. The owners were looking to give the restaurant a new look that included a sushi bar, beverage bar, and hibachi dining area. Through this new design, the restaurant incorporates many aspects of traditional Japanese styles that are able to entertain a variety of age groups.
The design of the space focuses on the Japanese food and the experience that a hibachi and sushi restaurant provides. Rich purple and crimson hues will pop against a warm neutral color pallet in the restaurant re-design. Traditional Japanese elements inspired aspects of nature, simplicity, and rectilinear forms that were created for the restaurant. The design will bring energy and life into the space as well as incorporate the simplistic elements of the shoji screen. The relaxing feeling of diffused light will create an atmosphere of intimacy and entertainment. Linear forms, seen in the floor tile, entry partition, and beverage bar ceiling, highlights all parts of the restaurant design, without losing what the space is truly about—entertainment and energy. Excitement will greet each customer as they enter the restaurant and will be enjoyed by first time diners and returning customers.
