Vision: To create a "quiet luxury" sanctuary that stands in direct contrast to the typical "bling" of Dubai. This restaurant is an intimate, serene escape that champions the beauty of natural, imperfect, and masterfully crafted materials. The luxury is felt in the texture, quality, and artistry, not in the shine.

Style: Refined Wabi-Sabi. This is an ultra-luxury interpretation of the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence. It is minimalist but deeply textural, warm, and organic.

Color Palette: A deeply muted, earthy, and tonal palette.

• Base: Honed Travertine (#D6CFC1), Warm Greige (#BEB8AF), Chalky White (#F4F3ED).

• Accents: Matte Black (#1C1C1C), Deep Burnt Umber (#3A2A1F), Oxidized Bronze (#5C4033).

• Materials: Aged Reclaimed Wood (e.g., Smoked Elm), Textured Plaster (Limewash/Tadelakt), Natural Linen, Raw Silk, Hand-fired Ceramics, and Honed (not polished) Stone.

Atmosphere: Serene, Intimate, Grounded, Timeless, Contemplative. The focus is on tactile sensations and the interplay of natural light and shadow.
