Ashiesh Shah creates "visually soft" restaurant interior in Mumbai
Textured surfaces and sinuous forms populate this outpost of vegan restaurant chain Sequel in Mumbai, which was designed by local architect Ashiesh Shah.
Located in an office development in the city's Bandra Kurla Complex, the interior was conceived as a calming antidote to the busy business district beyond.
"The restaurant alludes to a timeless charm, celebrating the ethos of subtle luxury, slow living and refined lifestyles," Shah explained.

Divided into two zones, Sequel features a grab-and-go counter on one side and a cafe on the other, which serves as a formal dining area for customers looking for a break from work. The two areas are divided by a central partition with a doorway on either side for easy circulation.

Shah designed the restaurant as a reflection of Sequel's philosophy, which it described as "futuristic in form and earthy at its core".
Textured materials are paired with neutral colours and soft edges to create a "visually soft interior".
Shah had a number of furniture items, such as these stools, custom-made for the project
"The material choices for the space pay homage to Indian craftsmanship and handmade processes," Shah explained.
