Renovation

In the Theater am Rhein, next to the cathedral, right next to the main train station in Cologne, it was proposed to convert the restaurant into an exquisite lounge, as previous step to adapt the entire foyer for the new show. The 20-30s required style was a challenge into this semi-permanent tent-container steel framed building; the former appearance consisted of naked steel structure combined with full size glass facades. Stucco details and the material brass replaced all of these elements in order to achieve a certain artificial patina. The resulting character is introvert and pleasantly consistent with a number of fresh lighting- and decorative objects.
