Project Description
K.GRILL is a spacious, two level restaurant with an open area for summer, serving fresh grilled meat and the old time classic “souvlaki” and “kalamaki”. The main concern was to address the traditional Greek food subject from a casual and progressive point of view. The brand identity was based upon a warehouse and barn atmosphere, involving the use of rough materials (such as cement, old wood planks and iron meshes), as well as meat relevant graphics (a bull’s head outline and meat stamps).
The open charcoal grill with the hanging illuminated beer cellar welcomes guests right after their entrance. Two more black metal mesh-made beer cellars were built in the upper level, where a series of denim covered sofas set a more relaxed mood. The cardboard signs and stenciled logos on the untreated mdf wooden panels, doors and furniture add a subtle touch of informality to the otherwise strict architectural shell.
The creation of linear alcoves , in combination with the indirect, hidden lighting, offers a pleasant minimal and relaxing space, free from direct and dazzling light sources. It should also be noted, that besides the special aesthetic view, the lighting was treated also very seriously regarding the energy savings and the low consumption. For this reason economy and led lamps are chosen, in all areas, main and secondary.
