Restaurant INUA, Tokyo | SHADE leather seating

INUA is a Tokyo restaurant by Danish architecture and design firm OeO Studio. The name INUA is the Inuit term for the life force that runs through nature, echoed in the serene interior and use of natural material, such as the stunning wood floors from Dinesen.
