Made from hundreds of pieces of wood veneer, the installation is said to be inspired by the process of mincing meat.

Designed by YOD studio, the ceiling makes a unique visual experience. While the range of colors of the veneers makes for a dynamic look, the grains of the wood mix together to create depth and texture.

Tucked in between the wooden veneer panels are lights, hidden to mimic the effect of sun coming through the trees, with the result being a natural glow cast throughout the restaurant.

The wood veneers and furniture pieces also warm up the mostly concrete and steel interior.
