The Beerhouse, occupying the entire fourth floor, is dominated by a bar with suspended copper beer tanks. A slanted wooden floor brings dynamic feeling into the space. The bar is set into a built-in mezzanine, into which the sanitary facilities are also inserted.

The black cement screed on the walls and wooden furniture, with copper highlights on the bar, lighting, and structural elements, creates a harmonious contrast that adds to the inviting atmosphere of the place.

One of the unique features of the interior is the walls made of beer bottles set in a metal frame, which not only serves as a partition between different spaces but also creates a magical shadow play with the light passing through the bottle glass, coloring the interior with a honey shade of beer.

The roof illumination is primarily provided by a system of dimmable led spotlights. They are complemented by the distinctive yet simple design lights with copper details. Copper strips are placed locally on the walls, onto which wall lights are directed, creating indirect warm, honey-coloured reflections. The refurbished furniture is part of an overall concept of "Old meets New" where new meets history.
 The Beerhouse is connected to a newly built terrace, which opens up to the panorama of Humpolec town and is used for pleasant outdoor seating. The use of natural materials such as wood and the incorporation of distinctive features made from beer bottles highlight the brewery's unique identity and history, promoting a sense of place and local culture.

The project's use of local companies (interior supplier, design light producer, and construction company) and sustainable materials contributes to the local economy and reduces the carbon footprint associated with transportation. Consideration was given to end-of-life disposal and healthy materials, with a focus on maximizing re-use and minimizing waste.
