The concept behind the restaurant Nok stems from cherished childhood memories associated with dining out, particularly the cultural significance of meat grilling in Korean traditions. For many Koreans, such experiences hold a special place, evoking warmth, connection, and nostalgia.
The architects at orosy studio aimed to encapsulate these sentiments within the design of Nok, envisioning it as more than just a place to dine but as a space to forge meaningful connections and unforgettable moments with loved ones.
Retro design elements were thoughtfully reimagined using contemporary materials, seamlessly blending tradition with modernity. Central to the restaurant’s ambiance is the briquette brazier table, a nod to traditional Korean grilling customs but presented in a sleek, modern form. Every aspect, from the furniture to the props, was meticulously crafted to reflect the essence of Nok as a brand that values quality and authenticity.
The architects aspire for Nok to be more than just a dining destination but a cultural experience where patrons can gather, converse, and savor delicious food in the company of family, friends, and colleagues. Through its design and ambiance, Nok seeks to evoke the warmth of cherished memories while creating new ones for generations to come.
