Nomiya is an artistic project by Laurent Grasso with the collaboration of the architect Pascal Grasso.

This is a temporary, transportable restaurant on the roof of Le Palais de Tokyo museum in Paris. The restaurant takes its name, Nomiya, from a very small restaurant in Japan.

The structure features a dining room for twelve people with a panoramic view over the Seine and the Eiffel tower. The restaurant comprises a glass cabin and a perforated metal screen covering the central cooking area. The 18 metre-long structure was part constructed in the Cherbourg boatyard in northern France and transported to Paris in two parts, where it was assembled on the roof of Le Palais de Tokyo. Coloured LED lighting is placed between the metal skin and the glass core. White Corian furniture populates the dining room.

I FELT IT TO BE A VERY DISTURBING INTERVENTION. IT IS CREATING IMBALANCE IN THE EXISTING FABRIC. THE FACT THAT IT IS TEMPORARY IS VERY RELIEVING.OTHER WISE THE IDEA THAT ITS A TEMPORARY TRANSPORTABLE SPACE AND THE VIEW IT HAS ACHIEVED SEEMS TO BE THE MAIN DESIGN CONCERN I GUESS

    hey i agree with you. its really disturbing in terms of the view and how it intervents. but the good thing about this transportable and temporary restaurant is that it didnt destroy any main building structure or function.

    Just my 2cents

      A Ty johnie pseudopolaczku się wyrażaj. Na archdaily widzę opinie w różnych językach. A jak masz przekonania: “jeden naród, jeden kraj, jeden język” to sam spiepszaj.

At first look, simple, very nice. Looks like a “container” of space that you place wherever the view fits your taste. One of the pictures shows some AC units below the box. Hope those are for the museum and not for the portable dinning room.
Bravo les architectes.

How do you access it? Its a nice box, but as a solution of how to provide a small dining room i don’t think its that successful. Why is the dining area treated just as the “kitchen” (minus the lights)? It might have been interesting to have the kitchen plug into the dining space, and treat them differently.
