Uruk Restaurant Interior Evokes Eastern Ambiance with Minimalist Decor
Uruk is a restaurant in Kazakhstan, designed by Rustam Hamd in 2023. The project’s minimalist interior avoids typical Eastern cliches and instead features recognisable elements of Turkic nomadic culture, like kinetic installations inspired by traditional crafts and everyday objects. The decor evokes an Eastern ambiance with a monochrome “steppe” palette, adras-patterned furniture, and straw lampshades, creating a cohesive and subtle atmosphere.
