Akira, located right next to Onza at the POP UP Market in Westgate Mall, Westlands, is Nairobi’s modern take on Japanese cuisine. The restaurant combines a sleek, contemporary interior with a vibrant open-concept bar and kitchen at its centre, surrounded by tables that place guests right in the heart of the action.
Known for its inventive dishes and curated drinks, Akira delivers a dining experience that is both adventurous and refined.

From the concept up
We shaped Akira’s identity around its distinct vision — a modern Japanese kitchen that feels approachable, memorable, and exciting. The brand was crafted with sleek typography, a dynamic colour palette, and minimal design elements that reflect both tradition and innovation.
About Akira
We created a brand identity that speaks to Akira’s bold yet refined character — balancing modern typography, a crisp colour palette, and minimal iconography.
This visual language carried through social media, digital campaigns, and in-mall displays, giving the restaurant a recognisable and consistent presence.
Akira quickly became known as a spot where food, drinks, and atmosphere come together seamlessly, with its central bar and kitchen shaping nights that feel dynamic, social, and unforgettable. Guests return not only for the flavours but for the energy that makes every visit distinctly Akira.
