What if an architect could be as experimental as a chef?

Chef Nobu Matsuhisa has been an inspiration to Rockwell Group since working together on his first Tribeca restaurant in 1994. The chef’s upbringing and international experiences became the jumping off point for the spirit of his Midtown Manhattan restaurant.

From Chef Nobu Matsuhisa's early years growing up in the Japanese countryside to his first work as a chef in South America, his experiences inspired a design that uses materials as a geographic exploration of history and craft.
