Commissioned by a private client in 2025, La Scène is a new restaurant concept for Nişantaşı, Istanbul. The interiors bring together deep burgundy velvet, dark timber, marble and warm brass, set against large-scale painterly murals that become an integral part of the architecture. Conceived with a sense of intimacy and theatricality, the spaces use layered lighting, rich materials and carefully composed details to create a distinctive, cinematic dining atmosphere.
