This is the second venue of the Fabrika DAGA brand, Rainbow Factory in translation. It’s a fast food restaurant, which offers breakfast, lunch menu and the best coffee in town, focusing on the high quality of food, coming from local farmers. The design of the space follows the character and the use of materials of the first venue, developing a strong crafty, industrial feeling. Everything has been designed specifically for the place –the marble bar, which is the unique shiny element there, chairs, tables, furniture, doors and mechanisms and has been produced by our workshop and local craftsmen. No element is designed just for decoration, each has been developed due to the need of its function, and even the wall with the oak laths is improving the acoustics of the space, apart from creating graphic identity for this newborn space. We’ve put focus on the entrance, by crafting a solid oak door, continuing the design of the first venue, where we’ve designed and crafted a very recognized solid timber storefront. The raw concrete ceiling was the only surface empty of particular function. That’s where the hanging garden appears. The plants on the ceiling create a feeling of coziness and refresh the air, diffusing the warm light coming from above.
