<\/p>\n
YOD Group<\/strong><\/a> completes the newly opened dining hall for Grybova Hata (Mushroom House), a well-known restaurant<\/a><\/strong> located in the Ukrainian Carpathians<\/a><\/strong>. As the restaurant\u2019s name suggests, mushrooms serve as both the culinary focus and a conceptual design theme for the interior.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The design reinterprets elements of traditional Ukrainian hospitality through a minimalist spatial language. Organic curves, a natural color palette, and the use of raw, eco-conscious materials define the aesthetic approach. The interior<\/a><\/strong> relies on just two primary materials: textured plaster and locally sourced travertine, quarried near Ternopil. These material choices establish both visual simplicity and contextual relevance.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Mushrooms influenced not only the visual narrative but also the material palette. Much of the furniture was fabricated in Ukraine, supporting local craftsmanship. The design process by YOD Group architectural practice<\/a><\/strong> prioritized sustainability, with several custom elements developed from recycled and bio-based materials. Lighting fixtures were created by designer Valerii Kuznetsov using recycled plastic and incorporate integrated handwashing stations. The hostess stand features natural chaga mushrooms, referencing the species\u2019 tendency to grow on tree trunks in the region.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A notable feature within the space is a series of custom-made curtains produced from mushroom-based biotextile. Designed by Dasha Tsapenko, the installation includes six sculptural curtain pieces shaped like outerwear and sheepskin coats, along with one rectangular panel. These pieces were woven from coconut and hemp fibers, then inoculated with polypore mushroom spores and cultivated under controlled conditions for three weeks. The resulting mycelium formed an uneven, organic surface texture. Due to the biological growth process, each curtain remains unique, with varying densities and visible sections of the original netting.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The dining layout organizes seating around three thematic islands, each referencing a different aspect of the local culinary tradition. These include an area focused on cheese, featuring the region\u2019s characteristic cheese horses; a section dedicated to meat, showcasing traditional shovdary (smoked pork legs); and a spirits-focused zone highlighting herbal distillates made from regional botanicals.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ‘This architecture organically grew within the existing restaurant space, just as a mushroom grows from its mycelium. It embodies the ideas of locality and organic development, rethinking traditional materials and celebrating the culinary heritage of the region,’<\/em> says Volodymyr Nepyyvoda, Managing Partner at YOD Group.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n project info:<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n name:<\/strong> Grybova Hata | @grybova_hata<\/a><\/p>\n architect:<\/strong>\u00a0YOD Group<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0@yod.group<\/a><\/p>\n design team:<\/strong> Volodymyr Nepyivoda, Dmytro Bonesco, Denys Moseiko, Anna Klachun<\/p>\n lighting:<\/strong> Valerii Kuznetsov<\/a> | @decorkuznetsov<\/a><\/p>\n mushroom-based biotextile:<\/strong> Dasha Tsapenko | @atelier__dashatsapenko<\/a><\/p>\n location:<\/strong> Polyanytsya village, Bukovel, Ivano-Frankivsk oblast, Ukraine<\/p>\n area:<\/strong> 230 sqm<\/p>\n photographer:<\/strong> Andrii Bezuglov | @bezuglov<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n designboom has received this project from our\u00a0<\/i>DIY submissions<\/i><\/span><\/a>\u00a0feature, where we welcome our readers to submit their own work for publication. see more project submissions from our readers\u00a0<\/i>here.<\/i><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n edited by: christina vergopoulou | designboom<\/i><\/p>\n The post recycled and bio-based materials shape mushroom-inspired restaurant interior by YOD group<\/a> appeared first on designboom | architecture & design magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" YOD Group Completes Mushroom-Themed Dining Space YOD Group completes […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":775,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[12],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/773"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=773"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/773\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":788,"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/773\/revisions\/788"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/775"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=773"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=773"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.macdolphins.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=773"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
