At Lars, our approach was guided by a seamless balance between simplicity and refined texture. Inspired by minimalism and coastal warmth, the design prioritises a sense of calm while fostering connection.

The material palette brings together muted tones, textural contrasts, and natural finishes. Plastered walls and a tactile, textured ceiling anchor the space with raw sophistication. Soft drapery and delicate filtering of natural light complement the spatial flow, softening the formality of a restaurant setting and creating an intimate dining experience.

Luxury furnishings blend functionality with timeless style. Clean-lined timber tables and chairs were selected for their warmth and durability, while subtle accents—such as the curved forms and natural fibres—create cohesion throughout.

The final design is an exercise in restraint, where every detail is purposeful. From the artful layering of light to the curated placement of greenery, Lars achieves a pared-back elegance that feels both welcoming and contemporary—a space to linger, dine, and enjoy.
