SWA Architecture Weekly Blog

Hello and welcome back to the SWA Architecture weekly blog.  The only architecture blog like it.  If this is your first time reading this blog here is what we are about.  We are a mid size architecture company based in New York.  We work on projects all over the Northeast of the United States that vary from restaurants, to stores, to hotels.

This week we are covering a restaurant named Karasu, located at 166 Dekalb Ave.  If you go, you will see that Kerasu does not appear to actually be there and the restaurant Walters is actually there.  That is because to get to Karasu you must walk through Walters and go through a back door to get to this lovely Japanese restaurant.  We actually have also done work on Walters and  we covered the restaurant Walters in the past.  Walters was phase one and Karasu was phase two for this project.

Karasu is a secret spot known for its wonderful dishes.  The dishes are informed by the idea of washoku, a culinary philosophy that aims for balance across a meal by covering a diversity of flavors, textures and colors among a spread of dishes.

SWA Architecture are the architects and expediters for the interior renovation of this space.  We also obtained the place of assembly permits required.  Lastly, SWA Architecture also are the architects and expediters for the Landmark Applications needed for this spot.

That's it for this week's SWA Architecture weekly blog.  Stay tuned for more to come your way very soon.  We hope you enjoyed covering Karasu as much as we did.  Give us a follow on instagram - @swa_architecture to see all the wonderful projects we have been a part of!
