We developed sketches for a restaurant in the center of Minsk, in the basement of a historic building of 18th century We took the mystical image of an underground river and copper pipes as a basis. An important task was to preserve the authenticity of the place, emphasize the incredible beauty of the old brickwork, the architecture of the vaults. The design uses folk motifs of the cutting designs and straw “spiders” in a modern interpretation. The combination of terracotta bricks, “river” turquoise, natural copper, warm wood makes this place cozy and atmospheric. .
