Osteria dei
Vecchi Sapori

An old Milanese courtyard with cobblestones inside a workshop was preserved in the conversion of the intended use into a tavern by the stratagem of waterproofing the pavement with thick transparent resin to preserve the reminiscence of the original structure.

To further characterize the outdoor appearance of the main courtyard room, a gutter with downspouts was made for the purpose of placing LED reflected-light lights on the walls, thus creating an atmospheric atmosphere.

The custom-designed bar counter welcomes foodies along with the light path leading from the entrance into the courtyard room. The kitchen has been placed in the showcase to let people understand the quality of the entire food production process from raw material to plate.
