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
