Popular Bistro Barbro needed more space for guests in its basement and help getting a better flow within the premises. Without having the possibility of expanding the kitchen. Studio Stockholm’s interior design concept creates space and plays on Bistro Barbro’s menu by bringing together Scandinavian and Japanese influences with materials that are represented in both design cultures.
Fun detail: Bistro Barbro’s popular “Biobar” continued even after the renovation. Larger groups that book the premises have the opportunity to watch movies from the Bio Rio cinema’s collection of films.
