KuruKuru Sandy Bay

Located in Sandy Bay, a former bank building has been transformed into a colourful and vibrant Japanese restaurant. Joining the Bento franchise, Kurukuru Ramen provides a unique dining experience filled with colour and chaos.

To help promote repeat visitation and to break up the large open internal space, we proposed several ‘districts’ within the space. Each district has its own unique atmosphere created through lighting, volume, layering, seating arrangements, colour and aspect.

Cylindrical forms are layered across the ceiling in an array of black exteriors with hollow interiors of block colour, colour graphic, or LED lighting. Bright pink steel framing dances around the room as partitions and a cage-like ceiling. Pink and yellow Perspex, perforated screens, blue upholstery and neon lighting is scattered throughout the interior, resulting in a fit-out that is bold and dares to be different

About the
Professional

Jason Licht
Registered Architect (TAS & VIC), M.Arch, B.EnvDes.

I have extensive project experience in commercial, heritage and conservation projects, restaurants, boutique hotels, multi-residential & boutique residential projects.

I graduated with a Master of Architecture from the University of Tasmania in 2008. Since graduation, I’ve worked on a range of projects in a number of Tasmanian firms including David Denman and Associates (2007-2008); Bullock Consulting now 6ty (2009-2014); and was an Associate at Cumulus Studio (2014-2019).

I love to work on projects big and small and currently am working on projects all across Tasmania - from Hobart where I’m based, all the way up to the northwest coast where I grew up on a dairy farm. I’m also working on projects across the ‘ditch’ in Victoria. When I’m not designing… I’m a keen fly fisherman, a lover of all things sport, a whisky sipper, a dabbler in oil painting, and a self-proclaimed car trip karaoke king.

With back pockets full of learning, project experience and knowledge I’m always looking for new opportunities. I’d love to catch up for a coffee or a beer to discuss your project.

Licht = it’s dutch… sounds like light!
