Zenzi Den

Siren Betty Design brings a layered, Japanese-inspired aesthetic to Zenzi Den, a Ballyhoo Hospitality restaurant in Glenview, Illinois. Custom millwork plays a central role in the design, adding warmth and architectural detail throughout. Glowing shoji screens and intricate beaded partitions create intimate spaces within the restaurant. Rich upholstery and sculptural lighting bring depth and character. A softly illuminated bar anchors the space, while the private Tatami Room offers a more secluded dining experience.
