As frangipani blooms in full, ithaka unveils a fresh chapter in culinary artistry—a creative Vietnamese hotpot restaurant designed for the new generation of food enthusiasts.

The project draws its primary inspiration from the iconic Train Street in Hanoi, seamlessly blending these elements with the utopian ideals of the Asaka community in Beihai. Through a design approach rich in symbolism, the space integrates train-inspired motifs and accents, linking the dining experience to the flavors of the cuisine while resonating with Beihai’s ethos as a scenic and welcoming tourist destination.

This spirit is reflected in the interior design, which embraces warm tones inspired by the vibrant yellow of frangipani and a twilight palette that evokes the ambiance of bustling markets and laid-back street cafés. Material selections aim to evoke an elegant lifestyle, featuring Southeast Asian elements such as rattan furniture, which adds a touch of authenticity and regional charm to the space.
