The space is home to [Burger Bros](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimate-steakhouse-whopper), a [beach-inspired restaurant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balboa-surf-club) located in the bustling city of Da Nang. Da Nang is famous for its resorts and the architects played off of this beach/vacation aesthetic in their design. The original structure was very divided, and the architects chose to break down many of the existing partitions and walls in order to create a lofty-like and open concept aesthetic. The space is decorated with beach-inspired furniture and playful neon light fixtures. The project was built during the COVID-19 pandemic, and due to a strict lockdown in Vietnam, the project was proceeded without the architect's ever visiting the site. The architect's used a 3D visualization tool in order to communicate with the construction company. The 3D tool turned out to be a useful communication tool as it helped overcome language barriers amongst the team.
