Just opposite the entry bar area is a pine wall; the pinewood was charred and burned using a Japanese technique to create an iridescent shimmer that would contrast the nude-colored plaster of the surrounding walls. The brick featured in the dining room was clayfired, followed by a hand-applied lacquer stain and oil finish to create a terracotta-like color and texture that recalls well-worn temple walls. The sushi bar is made from a single fallen pecan tree trunk, and is fronted by sleek white chairs. And the cage-like light fixtures, similar to the fishbasket-style ceiling lamps at sister restaurant Uchi, are made from steel wire wrapped with silk ribbon. When it came to the custom-built tables themselves, Hsu went with a more even-toned walnut wood that would highlight the ceramic plates, contemporary flatware, and of course, the food itself. “We wanted to play a supporting role to the cuisine, which is very much about contrasting textures and flavors,” he notes. “We didn’t want to be the whole show.” hd www.mhsudesign.com; www.uchikoaustin.com
