Bar and restaurant interior design ideas

Sometimes the smallest material choice has the biggest impact on a project. In this home bar remodel, the standout feature isn't the cabinetry, countertops, or appliances. It's the woven wire mesh wrapping the front of the bar.

Adding wire mesh to the face of the bar instantly changed the visual experience of the entertainment space. The woven pattern introduces depth and detail that catches your eye without dominatin...

Ribambelle is a project of a very unusual format for us. It is both a restaurant where parents can spend time relaxing and a children's space with areas for children of all ages. The project is located in the Bluewaters neighbourhood in Dubai.

It occupies two floors. On the ground floor, we have located the main childr... More
