BAR & RESTAURANT APERITIVO | COMMERCIAL
Eklego Design
BRIEF
Hedayat and her team at Eklego Design worked closely with the owners of La Bodega’s new restaurant Aperitivo, to create a space that revives the glamorous era of 1930’s Cairo. The challenge was to bring the concept to life through the design in a way that highlights the opulence and style of that period, while making it a contemporary space that is timeless.
The design emphasises the rich art deco architecture of the Baehler Building, built in 1929. Floor to ceiling dark walnut cabinetry lines the walls while opulent crystal chandeliers (sourced by the client) were hung in clusters emphasising the magnificent high ceilings of the space.
