The famous high-tech building on Hungária körút from the 90’s has received a new function on its ground level. The entire floor is occupied by a restaurant that serves the colleagues from the office campus, and also the residents of the neighborhood. A flexible open room for different functions, bar, restaurant, meeting hub and event hall in one space. During the design process we developed the concept by consulting the original designer, Antal Lázár. The interior mood reflects the building’s atmosphere and geometry, clear, sometimes industrial, dominated by strong inner order. To soften tis mood we applied colours on the ceiling metal sheets and plants in-between the seating areas.
