Bakery cafe «Breadberry» with elements of Permian animal style
The Breadberry Bakery Cafe on Nikolay Ostrovsky Street is one of the popular places where Permians like to stop by for morning coffee, meet with friends, or even schedule a business meeting. The restaurant’s point of attraction was not only the menu with fresh pastries, but also the spectacular interior, which our team worked on.
Our client is a young entrepreneur who fell in love with the bread at one of the bakeries in St. Petersburg and decided that Perm could be just as good, if not better. This was his first venture into the catering industry, and he approached it with a structured mindset, which led to a holistic concept. The main idea behind the project was to create a space where people could enjoy the experience of eating bread, conveyed through the use of color, lighting, and most importantly, shape. It was essential to ensure that every aspect of the experience, from the taste of the bread to the texture and visual appeal of the interior, would leave a lasting impression on the guest.
The bakery was designed to be a place where people can enjoy the freshest and most relevant pastries in the city, as well as the most fashionable ones. All the latest trends from around the world are showcased on their shelves. At the same time, the bakery wanted to be associated with the local area. Therefore, they decided to use a variation on the Permian animal style in their identity. This theme is reflected in the interior design as well. MDF panels, graphics on the walls, partitions, and work stands all repeat the shapes of the graphic design elements. The company’s choice of colors was also influenced by its identity, but they added a touch of mustard and beige to create a unique color scheme. This color combination was inspired by one of the pastries that the bakery’s team created.
With the help of warm colors and oak veneer, we have created a comfortable atmosphere. A plastic light structure with soft lighting also helps to solve this problem. It, like the wardrobe partition, follows the shape of the desk and corporate identity elements. MDF panels are our most successful finishing material, which makes the greatest impression on guests. Handcrafted cement tiles from The Stone Manufactory were used for the floor, echoing the decoration of the walls and tables, which are all made of concrete by Statica for four. A large mirror was hung at the entrance for guests to take selfies.
Most of the furniture in the room was custom-made, as we wanted each piece to be unique. One of the most interesting pieces was the rack, which repeated the shape and color of kneaded dough. The interior also featured bright examples of Russian design, including chairs from the St. Petersburg-based company Delo Design. The chandelier was a particular success. Not all contractors were willing to take on such a project, and many quoted sky-high prices in order to avoid taking the risk. It seemed like we might have to abandon the idea, but eventually, our estimators persuaded one manufacturer based on their communication data. They convinced him to create this design within the budget we had outlined. As a result, the chandelier has become one of the most striking elements in the room.
