Ishizuka

Located in Bourke Street, Melbourne, Ishizuka was created by local award-winning firm, Russell & George. Kaiseki is a traditional Japanese dining experience where courses are curated, crafted and served over several hours. The 16-seat restaurant was designed to offer an immersive and surprising experience that complements the food.

‘The interior is bold, unusual, controversial, thought-provoking yet in complete balance – just like Kaiseki.’ says Ryan Russell and Bryon George (Founders of Russell & George). A particularly unique, however less obvious feature of the design is the subtle raise in the flooring which allows the diner to sit on a chair rather than a bar stool creating greater comfort and a more relaxed dining experience. Russell & George were relentless in their search for the perfect chair and hand-picked the Merano Armchair from TON in a Natural Oak finish and black leather upholstery. Innovatively designed by Alex Gufler, the Merano Armchair consists of two axially intersecting molded plywoods which guarantee a very high level of comfort and style.
