In this hookah bar and restaurant project every detail reflects the transformation of wood into coals. Dark hues, reminiscent of smoldering embers, dominate the interior, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Bright orange accents, symbolizing the fiery passion of the burning wood, add a touch of vibrancy.
The centerpiece of our space is a unique bar, shaped like a massive, petrified tree stump. Above the bar and the main table, delicate wire lamps hang, mimicking the ethereal wisps of smoke.
Our bar area is a separate, intricate structure. At its heart lies a passage leading to the kitchen and technical areas. On one side, skilled artisans prepare your hookah, while on the other, mixologists craft your favorite beverages.
Along the windows opposite the bar, you'll find comfortable seating arrangements with big natural wooden tables, perfect for enjoying your hookah and meal. The walls, adorned with burnt panels, show again the process of burning wood.
The main dining hall features a movable screen with suspended fragments of burnt wood, creating distinct seating zones. In the central block, you'll discover a spacious guest bathroom with a window overlooking the bar.
