rinna is a testament to the harmonious blend of style and substance. Drawing from the relaxed vibes of Mediterranean lifestyle, the design palette of rinna is adorned with vibrant terracotta hues, mirroring the soothing tones of the coastal regions. Textured walls and natural stone floors evoke a sense of coastal charm and timeless sophistication, setting the stage for an immersive dining experience.

Tranquility reigns supreme at rinna, where natural elements and abundant greenery create a serene atmosphere. Expansive windows flood the space with natural light, while plush banquettes and stone counters invite guests to unwind and connect with nature. The earthy tones and organic textures embrace the essence of the Mediterranean, offering a sanctuary for relaxation and inspiration.

While rinna embodies modern architectural elements, H2R Design ensured a subtle nod to heritage and authenticity. Semi-restored elements with genuine character add depth and charm, creating an unfinished allure that celebrates harmonious imperfection. The venue becomes a canvas where raw textures and rustic accents intertwine seamlessly, creating a unique and inviting atmosphere.

Rinna’s neutral backdrop serves as the perfect canvas for captivating murals inspired by the Mediterranean aesthetic. Geometric creations not only add visual intrigue but also enhance the sense of expansiveness within the space. Cleverly positioned kitchen windows offer glimpses into the culinary scene, adding to the restaurant’s vibrant ambiance without compromising its tranquility.
