Rejecting any ornamentation or decorative flourishes, the interior design relies instead on geometric shapes and blocks of colour to jazz up the otherwise plain interiors. Among those shapes, the most ubiquitous is the circle. From the numerous round tables of different sizes and the slender, ring-like chandeliers that hang above them, to the circular mirrors and wall openings, the circular elements have an elegant perfection and latent suppleness that soften the harshness of the prevailing industrial aesthetic of unrefined textures. So do the various blocks of colour that populate the space in the form of tables, chairs and counters, enlivening the achromatic building fabric.
The subtle playfulness of the colourful geometric language is enhanced by the use of perforated sheet metal for table tops that imbues a sense of lightness against the brutalism of the concrete surroundings, as well as the presence of planted vegetation and the softness of the felt textile panels that populate the private dining room's ceiling.
Come night time, a purple fluorescence envelops the establishment, while a green glow welcomes guests at the door, completely transforming the coolness of the daytime interiors into a mesmerizing ambience where guests can relax sipping their cocktails or try their best dance moves to the DJ's groovy selections.
