Roka Restaurant
London, 2014
Spanning 5000 square feet, the new Roka restaurant is on the ground floor, facing Aldwych.
In his brief to Claudio Silvestrin, Rainer Becker wished for the design to be unique to this particular Roka, not resembling other Roka branches in London (with the exception of the Robata Island grill which is a type of grill used in the Japanese hibachi restaurants for cooking food in front of customers), nor repeating Claudio’s successful design of the recently launched Oblix at the Shard.
Roka at Aldwych, with its compelling design, contains all the distinguished components of Claudio Silvestrin architecture: all natural materials expressed in pure, decisive geometric forms in order to achieve simple yet elegant spaces.
The palette is minimal: stained grey timber and dark green marble for the floor and walls, oak for tables and ceiling.
The overall atmosphere: cool!
