Sushi-San
O’Kelly Kasprak was excited to be a part of the new Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises hot spot, Sushi San. As the sister restaurant to the established Ramen San, Sushi San embraced the hip minimalism of the brand while still showcasing its unique approach to Japanese cuisine. After the successful outcome of their first location in River North, Sushi-San opened this location in the Willis Tower with the “Grab ‘N Go” concept in mind. Inspired by their signature hand-rolled sushi and modern Hip Hop culture, the design utilized traditional Japanese elements as well as American influences to create a modern and relaxed atmosphere..

Drawing inspiration from Art Deco design as well as the iconic Chicago ‘L’ train the design team was able to put a new spin on the classic Starbucks cafe that is sleek and modern, providing a uniquely Chicago experience.
