# Sustainable Noodle Huts The Japanese Noodle Restaurant is an Eco Architectural Stunner By Amanda Chang | Published 2010-11-05 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/japanese-noodle-restaurant References: [ecofriend.org](http://www.ecofriend.org/entry/dsas-uses-bamboo-to-build-outdoor-japanese-noodle-restaurant/) & [archdaily](http://www.archdaily.com/85282/restaurant-at-greenville-dsas/) I wish more restaurants looked like the open-air concept Japanese Noodle Restaurant. A stunning architectural beauty located in Jakarta, Indonesia, this noodle restaurant is also [eco-friendly](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-neos)! Designed by DSA+s, the inspiration behind the design of the building were 'umbrellas' which can also be easily assembled and disassembled. Featuring a [structure made purely from bamboos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amazon-rainforest-pavilion) tied together, the Japanese Noodle Restaurant is definitely one worth checking out. **Implications** - With so much harm done to the environment each day, modern-age customers are looking for products that help sustain natural resources. Incorporating a green-friendly approach into everyday experiences appeals to consumers who have fast-paced lives but still want to help the Earth. Developing organic products that are used on a daily basis could attract a wider audience for companies looking to grow their brand. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 74% | Activity: 37% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Eco-friendly Architecture:** There is a growing trend towards designing and constructing eco-friendly buildings, like the Japanese Noodle Restaurant, that minimize harm to the environment. - **Sustainable Consumer Products:** Consumers are increasingly seeking out organic and sustainable products for their everyday needs, creating an opportunity for companies to develop and promote green-friendly offerings. - **Open-air Dining:** Open-air dining concepts, like the Japanese Noodle Restaurant, are gaining popularity as consumers seek unique and environmentally friendly dining experiences. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Architecture and Design:** The architecture and design industry can capitalize on the trend of eco-friendly architecture by creating innovative and sustainable building concepts. - **Consumer Goods:** The consumer goods industry has an opportunity to tap into the demand for sustainable products by developing and marketing organic and environmentally friendly consumer goods. - **Hospitality and Food Service:** The hospitality and food service industry can explore open-air dining concepts and eco-friendly restaurant designs to attract environmentally conscious consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Floral Architecture Floating Restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nelumbo.md) - [Tree-Nestled Bar Restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stalk-treehugger.md) - [Stingray-Inspired Restaurant Roofs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/overwater-restaurant.md) - [Bamboo Screen-Wrapped Restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nh-t-garden-restaurant.md) - [Circular Bamboo Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/juna.md) - [Minimalist Warehouse Dining](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sko-restaurant.md) - [Ominous Interior Sushi Restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origami-restaurant.md) - [Intimate Noodle Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calgary-noodle-bar.md) - [Compacted Earth Restaurant Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quisimangia.md)
