Sapid Studio has renovated an existing restaurant into Sando in Geneva, Switzerland.

This project is a new Japanese-inspired burger bar located in Geneva, Switzerland.

The design process involved the renovation of an existing restaurant in the same location that centred around the precise demolition and reconstruction of key elements within the space.

"The Japanese concept of Boro was at the forefront of the design process, which refers to materials that have been repaired or stitched back together to create a multi-layered patchwork effect," said Sapid Studio.

"It is the reworking of an existing element, stitched together with surgical demolition, alterations and additions, that creates the unique patchwork that is Sando."

This project has been longlisted in the restaurant and bar interior category of Dezeen Awards 2024.
