Giglio's Ristobar - Restaurant Design

In the creative heart of Ehrenfeld in Cologne, "Giglios – Piccola" is a restaurant that celebrates Italian culture with a nostalgic and popular twist. The architecture opens up to the street with large windows, turning the venue into a true urban stage. The space, inspired by 1960s–70s Italy, evokes the charm of small-town bars with a cinematic flair: lyrics by Paolo Conte, vintage graphics, and warm materials. A playful and genuine tribute to "mamma's kitchen" and the spirit of La Dolce Vita.

Key Design Features:
- Strong Italian narrative identity: Inspired by the '60s/'70s, blending trattoria, tobacco bar, and Fellini-style Italian cinema.
- Opening to the city: Large windows create a theatrical connection between the interior and the street.
- Iconic materials and details: Terrazzo, patterned tiles, wood, vintage graphics, and musical quotes craft the atmosphere.
