架构师提供的文本描述。Kotobuki餐厅的翻修项目，这是里约热内卢的一家传统日本餐厅(第一批日本餐馆之一)，其建筑线条过时，远远低于所提供产品的质量。桌子和衬里都过时了，它们没有创造出它想要的那种舒适的气氛。

Text description provided by the architects. Refurbishing project of Kotobuki Restaurant, a traditional Japanese Restaurant in Rio de Janeiro (one of the first Japanese restaurants), which had an outdated architectural line, very much below the quality of the products offered. The tables and the linings were obsolete and they didn't create the cozy atmosphere that it would like.

有必要对餐厅进行横向扩张，这是对餐厅进行全面重组的一个很好的理由。

The need to make a lateral expansion in the restaurant was an excellent reason to make a complete restructuring of the restaurant.

这家餐厅现在有几个不同的区域，每个区域都有自己的特色，例如寿司吧和为夫妻或团体保留的区域。

The restaurant now has several different areas each with its own characteristics, such as the sushi bar and the reserved area for couples or groups.

他们的兴趣是整修餐厅的装饰项目和前面，扩大侧边面积和一侧的新立面，重新调整餐厅的主房间，创造更舒适的空间，以使空间更有吸引力和更现代化。

The interest was the refurbishing of the finishing items and the front of the restaurant, the expansion of the side area and a new facade on the side, restructuring of the main room of the restaurant, creating cozier spaces, with the intention of making the spaces more attractive and more modern.

 Floor Plan

项目开始时的出发点是使用与日本文化相关的天然元素材料-木材和石头。天然元素，如木材，石头，陶瓷，喷泉和红色在一些地区，这是Kotobuki商标，被使用。在体系结构中使用图形元素，与菜单的可视化程序和其他相关内容相一致。

The set off point for the beginning of the project was the use of natural element materials, related to the Japanese culture - wood and stone. Natural elements such as wood, stone, ceramic, a water fountain and the color red in some areas, which is the Kotobuki trademark, were used. Graphic elements were used in the architecture in agreement with the visual program of the menu and other related things.

有必要使空间变得更加舒适，作为一个愉快时刻的场景。以及一种特殊的重新定义，改进了通量和特殊的布局配置，以允许午餐和晚餐时间之间的不同用途。

There was the need to make the spaces cozier as a scenario for pleasant moments. As well as a special redefinition with an improvement of the fluxes and a special configuration of the layout to allow different uses between lunch and dinner times.

我们以这样的方式对餐厅的布局进行了审查，从而消除了餐厅食堂的问题。主房间的墙壁上有一张沙发，使餐厅更加舒适。在主房间和保留区域之间建立了分隔的新的亲密区域。低矮的桌子，保留的区域，阳台的地方给客户提供了各种各样的空间选择。保留区域为享受寿司/生鱼片创造了更舒适的环境。

The layout was reviewed in such a way to remove the aspect of canteen from the restaurant. The main room received a sofa along the walls, making the restaurant cozier. New intimate areas with separation were created between the main room and the reserved areas. The low tables, the reserved areas, and the balcony places give the clients a variety of space options. The reserved areas make a cozier environment to enjoy the sushi / sashimis.

客户允许建筑办公室选择材料，建议立即获得批准。

The client allowed the Architecture office to choose the materials and the suggestions were instantly approved.

使用的自然元素指的是自然元素：水、土、火和空气。餐厅入口处使用了一座象征和谐与繁荣的喷泉，整面墙都被天然石料覆盖，向人们致意。墙上挂着木块，嵌着闪电，让我们想起了火的颜色。在天花板上放置的木片的节奏，从墙壁下降创造了一个有趣的纹理，使寿司酒吧成为一个愉快和舒适的环境。

The natural elements used refer to the elements of nature: water, earth, fire and air. A water fountain, which symbolizes harmony and prosperity, with the whole wall covered in natural stone, was used at the entrance of the restaurant, greeting the people.  Wooden pieces line the walls, with inbuilt lightening, which remind us of the color of fire. The rhythm of the wooden pieces placed on the ceiling, descending from the walls creates an interesting texture making the sushi bar into a pleasant and cozy environment.
