4)  JUNSUI, BURJ AL ARAB, UAE


The interior of Asian outlet Junsui was designed by KCA International, whose design principal Khuan Chew has a long-standing association with the iconic Jumeirah property, having been the interior designer for the entire hotel.

Burj Al Arab hotel manager Ammar Hilal explains: “The concept of Junsui, meaning ‘pure’ in Japanese, is reflected in the design, layout, and all the materials used. Junsui’s ‘wow factor’ is in the mixture of both glamorous and unusual materials coming together in finishes that, although not necessarily compatible, create a dynamic and exciting visual experience.

“The quality of the food and service standards are of utmost importance, but design has become equally important when it comes to any dining experience,” adds Hilal.

“Today there are a lot of themed restaurants concepts where it is important that the design reflect the style of food and how the food is served.

“Considering the competition out there a unique design concept can be a huge differentiator, and is an important aspect of the overall dining experience.”
