Description
TIPICO RESTAURANT WAS CREATED FROM MY MANY TRAVELS TO ITALY, MY UNDERSTANDING OF THE MATERIALS AVAILABLE IN ITALY. WE WANTED TO USE TRADITIONAL MATERIALS AND MAKE IT EDGY.
THIS PROJECT IS DESIGNED WITH EVERY DETAIL IN MIND, FROM THE INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE TO JOINERY, AND FURNITURE.
WE HELPED THE CLIENT FROM BEFORE THEY FIGURED OUT A NAME UNTIL THEY OPENED THE DOORS, IT WAS A JOURNEY OF REDISCOVERING HOW YOU CAN BE ITALIAN IN AUSTRALIA WITHOUT LOOKING LIKE ALL THE OTHER ITALIAN RESTAURANTS.
Initial Concept
WE TOOK INSPIRATION FROM THE CARLO SCARPA AND PAIRED THE INTERIOR BACK TO ITS BARE STRUCTURE. USING TERRAZZO STONE FROM ITALY WITH ZINK PLATED OVERHEAD BAR JOINERY AND CUSTOM DESIGNED BAR STOOLS IN CHROME.
OLIVE TONE LEATHER, GREEN BATHROOMS, AND RIPENING GRAPE BURGUNDY WAITER STATIONS. ITS ALL SO ITALIAN, THE WHITE, GREENS, AND REDS YET IT HAS ITS ON VOICE, AND ITS RAW, EDGY AND SEXY. IT’S AN ATMOSPHERIC DESIGN, THAT ALLOWS FOR INDIVIDUAL EXPRESSION.
