The goal behind Tuk Tuk Boom was to create a fresh, modern take on fast-casual Thai by designing a bright, lively space that mixes the colors found in curries, peppers and herbs with a natural wood and crisp white backdrop. The design team wanted to create both a takeout-friendly environment and one that would make dine-in guests want to linger. The judges felt it they did a great job of meeting their goals.
