Alisa’s interior design embraces the elegance of minimalism with rich, natural textures and Mediterranean influences. The walls, finished with a soft beige plastered effect, create a soothing backdrop to the space, while an overhead ceiling fan adds a touch of movement and comfort. The dining area features wooden tables, each topped with handcrafted zellige tiles, adding a unique touch of artistry and texture. The natural elements are enhanced by sculptural oversized vintage terracotta lamps, each a giant vessel transformed into a work of art, their handwoven wild lampshades casting a softened special glow. The design continues with carefully curated details that pay homage to Mediterranean charm. A rich array of hand-formed tiles lines the walls of the fireplace, offering texture and depth, while a wooden wine cellar offers an expansive variety of wines, inviting guests to explore the restaurant's carefully selected wine offerings. Aged brass elements throughout the space, from light fixtures to small accents, introduce a vintage feel, and a collection of wall art, including seashell-shaped clay objects, evokes the essence of the sea. The overall effect is a space where earthy tones, blue accents, and a timeless design come together, creating the perfect environment for every gathering—whether it's a romantic evening, a family dinner, or a gathering of friends.
