KOTO Japanese Restaurant
Food and Drink Parkes, Canberra, Australian Capital Territory
Restaurant and Cafe
Located in The Lobby building in one of Canberra’s most prominent locations on King George Terrace, KOTO is an integral part of the National Triangle’s new precinct, The Lawns of The Lobby. KOTO has been designed to protect the legacy of The Lobby building and continue the hospitality history in the 50-year-old Pavilion, including private dining.
Traditional architecture and dramatic interiors by the world-renowned company, Odd Design. The KOTO design preserves and revitalises the half-a-century-old, Japan-heritage architecture of The Lobby, taking advantage of the strength and symmetry of the original plan. The juxtaposition of the materials expresses Japanese aesthetics, Wabi-Sabi, the acceptance of transience and imperfection.
