NORD Architecture

Here the walls are adorned with full height banners from the Communist Era and a grand ceramic world map.
The utilitarian Drouth bar as featured at the 2004 Milan Salone Internazionale del mobile [Milan International Furniture Fair] is situated under the balcony in the main hall and provides a stark contrast to the existing rough sandstone walls in the hall.

A connecting corridor off this main bar leads to the restaurant area and takes its inspiration from Moscow underground stations. Ornate textured tiles echo a sense of timelessness along with brass picture lighting.

The dining room is upholstered in red-velvet-backed leather, mixed with an assortment of antique leather, circa-1930s, Russian chairs. Each tabletop’s accoutrements -- from salt-and-pepper shakers to decorative lights and cruets – are unique and behind each booth is a reclaimed traditional tea urn. The bar area is a traditionally upholstered and set against walls of elaborate flock wallpaper. A decadent candelabra sits on the end of the bar and signals the users arrival within this traditional ‘Russian Tearoom’.

From here a central staircase connects to the upper levels. Taking its inspiration from Russian Socialist propaganda and the work of El Lissitzky in particular, this enclosure reflects a journey through this period of Russian History and culminates in a large mural of Lenin at the stair head.
