Designed by Tokyo firm Daikei Mills, Parisian restaurant Dersou is located in a centuries old space with “layers of history,” as the designers say. "We were inspired to adapt our ideas on site to achieve the kind of space we aspire to create—one that feels ‘undesigned,’ with no unnecessary frills.” Join us for a look inside.
One Yelp reviewer notes that the restaurant has a “Brooklyn, Tokyo, Paris vibe.”
The designers installed a metal backrest against one wall; it’s an “inserted element that quietly punctuates the space, which is otherwise filled with natural materials,” they say.

The designers stripped away layers of wallpaper to reveal the original walls.
