A new golden age

Extensive research in terms of materials, finishes and furniture (by Riflessi) defines the Yugo Sushi Fusion Experience restaurant, together with the innovative gastronomic offering

Like a bright and precious box, the Yugo Sushi Fusion Experience restaurant at Volla (Naples), is coloured with gold and light, offering an immersion in design along with an exceptional gastronomic experience – a mix between Japanese and Mediterranean cuisine. Architect Marco Sorrentino, with the help of Riflessi, has designed the interior of the restaurant, taking inspiration from the nuanced colours of metal, in particular tones of gold: a warm and welcoming backdrop, clad in backlit onyx, and a series of structures in teak wood, inserts in tones of black and graphite and gold decorative details that stand out against the ceiling and floors treated with cement-effect resin.

The products by Riflessi are in keeping with this concept, starting with the Perla range of chairs and stools and the comfortable Carmen chairs, all with structures finished in matt gold to match the claddings that range from dark grey to dove, burgundy and blue. The matt gold is seen again in the base and profiles of the Shanghai tables with custom square top (dimensions 80 x 80 cm) and top in black glass.

The lighting is no less impressive, featuring lamps and tubes from the Stilo range – where the black and gold combination returns, with gold and satined chrome finish – alternated with ceiling lights from the LED Loop range with metal rings in a gold finish.
