Ubon

Ubon is a Thai bistro located in the core of Kuwait city. It overlooks Fahad Al salim street, a street well respected for it’s commerce back in the days.

For this to be executed, the interior works where to be integrated with the existing structural elements in a harmonious manner.

The Burnt wood panels, infused with the golden copper elements surround the dining area portraying the Asian influence of this bistro. Pendant lights were added to soothe the dining area with their organic shape. Adding to their relevance is the inner golden color they diffuse, a color that had great impact on thai cultural ornamentation.

To continue the vertical pattern, the restroom was fitted with a suspended ceiling faucet along with an off-white standalone basin.
