Hospitality as an art form. We designed an intimate space that feels like an open studio, offering a unique 'hosting atelier' experience in the heart of Tel Aviv's vibrant artists' district. Spanning two floors and an inviting courtyard, the layout is designed to create an unfolding journey: the ground floor serves as the main, open hosting space, while the basement below was carefully planned to let the party continue deep into the night. To complete this uncompromising boutique experience, the culinary vision was entrusted to the esteemed chefs Erez Komarovsky and Hanan Azran. Their high-end catering blends harmoniously with the design, together creating an event that is a complete work of art.
Our new hosting space for boutique events was born out of a desire to create a fascinating, dual experience: on the one hand, the intimate, creative, and free-spirited feel of an artist's studio, and on the other—precision, meticulousness, and the highest standard of hospitality. At the heart of the design are the new openings we created, which draw clear inspiration from the traditional window divisions of a Parisian atelier. The iron and glass frames not only let in an abundance of natural light but also elegantly frame the space. To complete the authentic feel, the interior walls received a unique treatment, giving them an aged, multi-layered appearance. Their textures are designed to look as though the space has stood here for years, absorbing layers of paint, history, and stories, waiting to be the perfect backdrop for your next event
As an integral part of our design vision, we chose to honor the story the building already tells. It was important to us to preserve and integrate original elements that were already present in the space, infusing them with our own fresh, personal interpretation—creating a fascinating dialogue between materials of the past and contemporary design. Yet, beyond the architecture and the meticulous details, the true magic and the peak of our creation happen when the space simply fills with life. Watching the space awaken, absorbing the energy of the guests, the sound of clinking glasses, and flowing conversations—that is the moment the studio transforms from a designed space into the beating heart of an unforgettable event.
