Restaurant near Řezáčovo Square in Prague

Interior project

In collaboration with Pavel Buryška

Studio Xtopix, 2017 / 2018

On the corner of Řezáčovo square in the famous 7th district was found the place for the original restaurant based on the idea of ​​joining the needs of social interactions between an adult and the entertainment and educational activities for the children. The restaurant is focused on topics as healthy eating, ecology, relation to nature, and plant growing.

An area of the restaurant interacts with the public space, while the kids' playroom is situated in a part primarily turning into the more private courtyard. A demand like flexibility, simplicity, economy, and the spirit of creativity led to the idea of an interior as a modular system. This system consists of perforated wooden panels, which cover the inner walls and create a cosy atmosphere. Perforation is designed for various kids’ games which can take place in any part of the cladding, and it can also serve for sound absorption.

The layout of the restaurant and the kids' playroom has the shape of "U," and it spreads around the background in the centre of it. The area can be occasionally separated into two spaces with an own entrance. Behind the entrance, there is a wooden podium, which can serve as a stage for a lecture or a show.

In the courtyard, there is a small garden for growing herbs, later used in the restaurant kitchen. The garden should also be an extended area for kids, where they can have fun while experiencing growing plants or some other garden activity.
