RØST MILANO

Restaurant and winery in Porta Venezia district

Milan
2019

 

The restaurant, developed on 65 sqm in Porta Venezia district, has been designed as a cozy and intimate place, and it's divided in two areas: the main room that gravitates around the bar counter, and a small room overlooking the kitchen. 

Vudafieri-Saverino Partners has translated Røst values ​into solutions of space, colors and surfaces. The result is a simple place, without fictions or artifices, with a careful and limited use of the material, reduced to a few basic types.

The tones are warm, dominated by the red color "Marsala", which refers to the fundamental relationship with wine and earth. The lime frescoed walls have two shades, the darker of which goes to create a sort of irregular boiserie. The same colors are also used for the ceramic covering that characterizes the kitchen and the adjacent room.

 

The restaurant is located in a space that for years belonged to a car parts shop. The value of the pre-existing features is evidenced by the choice to preserve the original floor, a sown one in porphyry pieces. The continuity with the past and the relationship with the memories are a theme often investigated by the studio, which in this case finds expression in the Rosso chandelier created by assembling in the diffuser the headlights of cars of different eras - a tribute to the world of cars.
