There are no hard surfaces or colors to be seen in this "magical" décor theme and there is a sense of softness and calm running throughout. Pastel pinks, blues, yellows and greens are offset by a light gray and white chevron patterned floor, as well as white-painted, decorative cutout details. These two dimensional details are representative of the "ancient castle" of the original restaurant inspiration, think fairytale-like parapets and towers, arched doorways and cornices.
Meanwhile, the "colorful hot air balloon" representation is a lot more literal, with colorfully patterned "balloons" interspersed in the space, like canopies over various kinds of "pools." These pools are each filled with an array of play materials - such as bubbles, sand or toys - and are connected to each other from a winding network of transparent acrylic crawlways and tunnels, suspended at different heights around the room.
And where are the parents while the kids are off exploring? Why, keeping an eye on them from the gilded benches and plush chairs surrounding the tables which are nestled among the playing pools. While the kids enjoy pretending to be knights and princesses in their colorful towers (or wherever else their imaginations lead) their parents can enjoy a coffee and a colorful pastry (or whatever else they request off the menu).
All of these elements conspire for the real-life existence of a "magical" land derived straight from a child's daydream and definitely encourages young imaginations, while also encouraging a relaxing respite for their parents.
