Shirokuro, located in NYC's East Village, is the city's first full-service 'two-dimensional' restaurant, designed to blend 2D art with the dining experience. Hand-illustrated designs create an optical illusion where walls, floors, and furniture appear to coexist in both 2D and 3D, enhancing the dining atmosphere. Co-owner James Lim drew inspiration from similar concepts in Asia, and the restaurant aims to fully engage patrons in an artistic dining environment. This innovative approach seeks to transport diners into a creative world, making each meal a unique experience.
Shirokuro is where you are able to immerse yourself in the art, blending the 2D and 3D environments seamlessly to create an engaging dining experience.
Mirim Yoo took three months to draw the space, aiming to make patrons feel like they fell into a sketchbook of artistry and imagination.
The 2D craze originated in Seoul in 2017, offering a unique dining experience where reality and art create an immersive environment.
Co-owner James Lim was inspired to bring the 2D concept to NYC after experiencing its popularity during a trip to Korea ten years ago.
