Multilingual Web Design Project for a Ramen Restaurant in Helsinki, Finland. Combining the traditional visual language of Japanese ramen shop menus with the simplicity and minimalism of Finnish design.
We were responsible for the website design for Ramen Ichiraku, a ramen restaurant located in Helsinki, Finland. This project involved design work only and did not include website development or coding. Ramen Ichiraku is operated by Momada Oy, a Finnish company. The website was designed as a primarily single-page experience and includes Finnish, English, and Japanese versions. We created responsive layouts for desktop, tablet, and mobile devices, as well as the mobile navigation menu displayed on tablets and smartphones. We also handled the English-to-Japanese translation for the project. From a design perspective, the goal was to combine the traditional visual atmosphere of a Japanese ramen restaurant menu with the simplicity and minimalism often associated with Finnish design, while adding a subtle touch of playfulness. Thanks to the client's warm personality and smooth communication throughout the project, the entire process—from the initial contact and agreement to design production and final delivery—progressed efficiently and pleasantly in English. As this project was limited to design services, we were not involved in the implementation phase. Through this experience, we were reminded of how important it is to approach website projects as a complete process that includes both design and development in order to fully realize the intended user experience and visual details. If the opportunity arises in the future, we would be delighted to provide a complete website production service that includes both design and coding. This project strengthened our connection to Finland and gave us an even greater appreciation for the country and its culture. And of course, our first stop would be Ramen Ichiraku.
