The SushiCafé Avenida in Lisbon is a perplexing layered restaurant that is a sushi shop by day and a bass-pumping lounge by night. The concept and structure was designed by the architects of Miguel Saraiva & Associados.
The undulating white walls are not only easy on the eye, but also include a built-in DJ booth and sound system for getting the party started. The gap between each layer houses a LED light system that changes color based on the music’s beat. The free-flowing walls are reminiscent of swirling desert wind storms or gentle drifting ocean tides.
The picturesque white interior provides the ideal blank canvas suitable for various celebrations and corporate events. The SushiCafé Avenida is yet another fashionable and hip venture to join the growing Lisbon nightlife culture.
