Design Description:
Inspired by the dramatic intensity, sudden twists and vivid hues of Japanese Kabuki theatre as well as Peter Greenaway’s “The Cook, The Thief, His Wife & Her Lover”, the design for Sho-U provides a dining experience which celebrates the unconventional amidst a surprising aesthetic. MOD also collaborated with renowned Singaporean Artist Lee Meiling for the flower art installations, and with Jo Soh of Hansel for the Japanese worker-inspired uniforms.
