A tour of the largest underwater restaurant
The extraordinary structure of the Under restaurant offers diners a huge panoramic view of the ocean and marine life. The seating area is underwater and offers soft lighting that makes the experience incredibly memorable. But not everything is going to be calm and relaxed, during storms, diners can have an up-close experience of the turbulence below the surface. Under is Europe’s first underwater restaurant and it is built on an incline so that customers can enter the lobby before heading to the dining room.
According to Thorsen, the wooden ceilings have an iridescent pattern that simulates a sunset. He chose this pattern because the proposal is similar to a bridge between the sea and the land. The building was carefully designed without any detrimental impact on the surrounding marine habitat. The exterior concrete of the structure functions as an artificial reef and a refuge for sea creatures to build their homes.
