The emphasis on natural materials in the primary structures fosters a refined yet welcoming ambiance. The centerpiece of the space—a bar counter with a walnut veneer base and a unique granite top featuring polished slabs with raw edges—ties the design together. This bar also doubles as a seating area, accompanied by Italian console chairs from the late 1970s. A wall clad in walnut veneer conceals a functional zone behind it, including a restroom and a custom-made sink crafted from light travertine, designed specifically for this project. Granite tables shimmer under the sunlight, harmonizing perfectly with the bar counter and uniting the space into a cohesive whole
