Sang Sang is a family-run Korean restaurant in Vienna’s 6th district - one of the first in the city and beloved for its fantastic dishes. The mantel was recently passed on to the next generation, and with that a new approach to the space. We decided to open the seating around a datum line of red-hued MDF panels. Together with the red MDF, the materials, furnishings, and lighting fixtures combine soft tonalities with clean lines and spatial divisions. The main dining room is lined with hand-drawn wall murals. In homage to the great Jean Giraud aka Moebius, we produced hybrid drawings that mix our own sketches with elements from the graphic novel the Incal. The drawings were then translated on the wall with acrylic markers by the deft hands of @burgsilber22
