Jidori is a minimalist space located in London, England, designed by Giles Reid Architects. In designing the space, the architects wanted the restaurant to have two atmospheres – open and airy during the day and intimate by night. To create a sense of occasion, the designers placed a roof shape over the dining area and then folded it back up over the kitchen. The room has a huge double bay window and because it lies on an axis with the pedestrian crossing, an amazingly direct relationship to the street. At night, the interior has a lantern like quality. The bar is made of Sycamore and seats ten. The floor is Oak laid diagonally. The walls are light grey Valchromat, which has a clear seal to preserve its texture. Bar stools have cork seats. Globe lights are suspended from the fold lines of the ceiling, whilst the edges are illuminated with concealed lighting.
