It features Italian home’s natural feeling and motifs of their brand including classic Italian movie scenes, nostalgic posters and video player. The comfortable setting with brick, natural wood and tiles hints at the picturesque streets of Italian towns, while vintage posters and projections recall the golden years of Italian cinema.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The trattoria is a restoration of an Italian town. The country house’s walls and windows, red brick façade walls are just like a plaza. Together with the parquet tiles, they all recall a feeling of an exotic Italian town.

TAGS: Dolce Vita, Classic movie, Italian country house, Italian town elements, 30’s & 40’s Hollywood movie.
RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The design is based on CIAK All Day Italian business philosophy. It hopes to present a mood and an attitude to life to their guests. To restore an Italian countryside culture, tell Dolce Vita - sweet life philosophy, and restore a mood of the 30s - 40s classic Italian movies. We research mainly on the internet.
CHALLENGE: Italian - Dolce Vita - sweet life, is a relatively abstract feeling. It is an attitude to life and guides us how to enjoy life. What we expect after a day’s hard work is nothing more than enjoying a meal at a leisurely and comfortable restaurant. This is also what we wish to offer to our family.

NAME: CIAK ALL DAY ITALIAN
PROFILE: CIAK, getting it’s name from filmmaking. It is the onomatopoeic sound of a clapper board closing as the director shouts action.

I am absolutely enthralled with the award-winning design of "CIAK All Day Italian"! The way it captures the essence of Italian culture, specifically the Dolce Vita, is stunning. The natural feeling it exudes by using materials like brick, natural wood and tiles is incredibly calming, while the vintage posters and projections bring an air of nostalgia and harken back to the golden years of Italian cinema. It is a truly beautiful creation and a great example of how design can capture the soul of a culture.

This award-winning restaurant brings the atmosphere of a classic Italian town to life with its trattoria-style restoration. The combination of red brick walls, parquet tiles, natural wood, vintage posters and projections, create a nostalgic and comfortable setting that captures the essence of the Dolce Vita - sweet life philosophy. The design is based on extensive research and the challenges of conveying a feeling of an Italian lifestyle have been met with great success. A truly unique and inspiring restaurant experience.
