japanese design studio process5 has created a restaurant based on the vienna secession art movement. drawing from the concept ‘dinner party that turns to art’, the building located in wakayama prefecture in japan, has its main focus inscribed on the exterior façade in german, ‘cooking is still an art’. wanting to offer guests an experience that draws similarities to the famous austrian era, the lavish experience of dining is enhanced with dishes that are assembled as if mini creations in their own right. the resulting atmosphere is the combination of joyful interactions and time spent with fellow guests, graceful service and walls lined with famous works by renowned painters.
