Nestled in a serene hunting region with campsites and wooden cabins, the restaurant offers a tranquil escape from city life, blending contemporary, raw, and natural elements to create a cozy, modern retreat.
The entrance features a minimalist design with natural textures like wood, stone, and metal, creating a warm, sophisticated atmosphere that reflects the surrounding nature. It invites guests into a space that feels both rustic and refined.
The main dining area is anchored by a versatile bench system running the length of the space, paired with movable seating islands divided by plants. This flexible setup allows for easy reconfiguration, adapting to various group sizes and events. Behind the benches, real and faux wall openings connect the building’s sides, adding a sense of openness and connection to the other side.
Thoughtfully crafted details, such as unique lighting and custom furnishings, complement the rearrangeable seating. The color palette combines vibrant and cozy tones, balancing tranquility with playful social energy to enhance the dining experience.
A cozy private room, separable by large curtains, offers a secluded space for events, maintaining the design’s connection to nature with warm textures and intimate decor.
The bar, designed as a secluded cave-like retreat, features rich, dark colors and soft lighting, contrasting with the lighter guest areas. This space provides a more intimate and sensory experience, encouraging guests to unwind.
Lighting highlights key areas and contrasts textures, enhancing the natural elements and adding depth and sensuality to the space.
The restaurant’s design is a harmonious blend of raw and contemporary elements, offering a serene yet dynamic atmosphere that captures the essence of nature, creating a unique dining experience away from everyday noise.
