Tetsuya Matsumoto The Parallel Blue Aquarium Dining
The Parallel Blue Aquarium Dining is Iron Design Award winner in 2020 - 2021 Interior Space and Exhibition Design Award Category.
The Parallel Blue Aquarium Dining

Located in one of the most bustling nightlife spots in Japan, The Parallel Blue offers a new aquarium dining experience in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Challenging the ocean-themed possibilities in the heart of the concrete jungle, the new restaurant turns the simple hospitality environment into an immersive space where dinners are submerged in an aquarium universe. To create the immersive experience, walls were finished in mirrors and the ceiling in similarly reflective aluminum panels expending the space in all directions and recreating the oceanic life in a surrounding environment.
