The interior creates an atmosphere of comfort and relaxation, at the same time creates a sense of unreality with its single composition of crossed linear lamps, attracting passers-by and standing out from other restaurants on the street
Lighting has become the main art object of the bar's space - a complex lamp seems to flow from the ceiling to the floor, forming additional small standing tables for visitors. The tables seem to float above the ground, adding weightlessness to the space. With dimming, the lighting can be adjusted to create a different atmosphere for guests.
The bar counter seems to «grow» out of the floor - its base is made of the same terrazzo as the floor, creating the effect of blurring the boundaries. Behind the bar there is an illuminated shelving - light is playfully refracted in bottles, setting a festive mood
Old brickwork has been preserved on the walls, which we decided to complete with illuminated metal arches. The arches are reflected in the gradient blue mirrors, creating a curious optical effect. The rest of the interior accents are made of natural wood - a cozy but luxurious material.
A separate interesting accent is the restroom - we repeated the contours of the arches of the main hall in the form of a marble slab and filled the space with the same soft glow.
