AVGUST 13 VOSTOK

Symmetrical rows of glossy black bottles in arched niches, loosely arranged tables of various shapes and sizes, carpets, as if hastily cut into arbitrary fragments. By the way, carpets play one of the key roles in the design and multi-level zoning — voluminous textures, strong dark shades, fringes and ornaments distribute spheres of influence and add tactile depth to the room.

These dishes have been used here for 10 years, but the designer couldn’t bring himself to throw them away after the renovation.
The veteran pans were cleaned, painted and solemnly placed on a white canvas. Now the things that were hidden from view, but at the same time dozens, hundreds of people were fed day after day, can be appreciated in the form of an installation in the right wing.

In the new reading, a huge authentic oven takes a break from bread. It is decorated with shining white mosaics and transformed into an unusual architectural form, as if floating above the bar next to the stairs.
Together with him, other "pensioners" were breathing deeply again.
Thus, the unique antique rocking chair and its companion, a French sideboard of dark carved wood with a patina of time, honored the institution with their presence, harmoniously fitting into the interior, emphasizing the idea of connecting the epochs.

In addition to the mirror, chandeliers with shimmering rows of crystals are selected. Almost immediately, at a distance of one screen from the makeshift institution of the noughties, the mood changes.
Mysterious figures are already dancing on the walls, and the motifs of the space send them on a new journey through the sands of the Bukhara Kyzylkum desert.

The beige one feels the fresh breath of the Mediterranean: a heavy table with a pronounced woody texture is surrounded by large windows, guests settle behind it in comfortable upholstered chairs, they already feel the sea breeze and are inevitably transported to the dream of the Italian Riviera, and if desired, create a chamber atmosphere by closing the shutters and lighting candles. All the candlesticks in this room, as in the entire restaurant, are vintage or antique — they have illuminated more than one life and appeared here to brighten up your evening.

The black hall, which represents the East, does not flirt with the guest with stereotypical representations in the form of tents, canopies and other serial paraphernalia. Moreover, the color scheme disposes of objects in a very interesting way. In the dark version, the same shutters on the windows have a completely different effect on the light, enhancing the effect of isolation of the hall. This Italian find fits more than seamlessly into the languor of the oriental style.

The white walls of the black hall are decorated with a collective mosaic ornament. It is a kind of reference to the Italian mosaics in Ravenna, and to the eastern analogues that can be found in Samarkand and Bukhara.

He only tactfully informs the guest about his fine taste and hospitality.
For all its versatility, the interior of the restaurant envelops in tranquility and invites you to relax, but in no case does it make the viewer bored.
