By creating a space design that Vietnamese people love, I hope to make ramen feel more familiar to them and to help it become more widely known among Vietnamese people.

We believe that travel is the best time to create emotions and memories.

First of all, we wanted to incorporate soft, free-form curves into the design, given the food ingredient “ramen” and the compartment shape being a semi-circle. Then, with a particular playful intent, I tried to create a design that would make people unintentionally want to “Snap!” and take a photo of it. The spherical shape of the pillar rolls is r...

The concept is “an old Northern European house”.The gentle texture of the wood grain creates femininity. In addition, the warmth of the natural materials also gives a sense of loveliness. The boards made of natural materials deteriorate over time and change into a new charm with the image of “an old Japanese-style house”.

[HACHIBAN RAMEN] is a strategy that targets Vietnamese families and young people. That's why they don't put Japanese or Westerners as our target customers. They have that strategy, but since they have only two stores, Vietnamese people are not aware of it yet. That's why I completely ignored "Japanese HACHIBAN RAMEN" and designed it. Especially reg...
