Material
The principle of natural authenticity permeates the interior, evident in its primary materials: wood, metal, and stone. Dark wood shapes the central wave-like bar counter, as well as shelves, tables, chairs, and benches. These elements, custommade to order, resonate with each other through form and color, blending seamlessly with French classics and 1970s vintage

Material
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
