Karolos

The key design approach to this project was determined by principles that defined the Mid Century movement. The palette of materials was carefully selected in a way that the saturated colors do not overshadow the simple, clean-cut, slightly curvy furniture. Wooden structures and claddings play a dominant role in the composition while remaining balanced by the reflections offered by both metal finishes and neutral-colored ceramic surfaces. Strict geometric patterns deriving from the white tiles’ grid and the striped wooden panels stand in contrast to the random pattern provided by the dark terrazzo coating on the bar. The choice of fabrics was made in respect with the furniture style and the overall color palette. The noteworthy presence of pendant lights in brass finish highlights the bar area and individual dining areas while the spotlights were distributed accordingly in order to create the appropriate ambiance.
