Evoking the atmosphere of seaside restaurants in Spain and Portugal, we sculpted a grotto-like setting with rhythmic curves and arches coated in chalky lime plaster to create cosy nooks within the cavernous concrete shell, also enhancing atmospheric shadow play come nightfall.

Assorted leather and fabric accents in rich nutmeg, paprika, olive greens and cumin reflect the sharp and spicy notes of the grill house’s unique culinary offering, while the bar’s elliptical canopy hovers above a central ‘mast,’ from which shelves extend like sails to float aquatic themes. Inspired by Ottoman architecture, we lined an expansive wall with raised reliefs depicting elaborate internal outlines of temple entrances and portico arches in exaggerated scale, accentuating their contours with mosaic tiles.
