The project brief was to convert a gaming room with boarded up windows and closed for years into a welcoming Vietnamese bistro open to the outdoors. Avoiding low-quality materials and not repeating the overused clichés associated with the design of many anonymous eateries offering Asian cuisine was central to the design. An interesting opportunity was provided by the boarded-up shopfronts, which, thanks to their structural depth, were used for elevated seating overlooking the pedestrian zone of the historic centre. The main role in the aesthetic appeal is played by complementary subtle reliefs, which are manifested not only in the ceramic mosaic in the interior and exterior (the mosaic also gave rise to a simple logo) or on the wallpaper with decor of cracked glaze, on the stair grates and in the use of corrugated iron as a decorative element on the bar counter and wall cladding. On one wall, the corrugated iron with fabric cover also serves an acoustic function.

Reconstruction of a ground floor establishment in a predominantly brick building from the 19th century. Large shopfronts are part of the 1930s alterations. The bistro offers 6 seats in the elevated storefronts, 29 seats in the main space and 6 seats in the rear lounge. The chairs are made of bent beech wood, the table tops are solid beech wood, the bases are metal, the upholstered atypical benches are beech veneer, the storage behind the bar and the storefront paneling is beech veneer. Mosaic and variously painted corrugated sheet tiling, paper wallpapers and in one case corrugated sheet tiling covered with textiles. Outer lining of the bar counter in lacquered corrugated iron. Tiled floor.
