To create the little brother of the Grand Central, a well-known bar in the municipality of Etterbeek, we were asked to design something just as raw but with its own identity, inspired by the canal district.

The slope of the steps of the neighboring outdoor staircase inspired the logo and was subtly incorporated into the large mural of the indoor staircase and on the bar, both made of concrete. The large hall with a mezzanine leads to the one at the back, which has a more festive atmosphere with a wall created from round glass tiles reclaimed thru upcycling. The request to capture a Californian spirit in the visual identity led to the addition of a sunset, a little nod to the large terrace seen from the other side of the bank. Project selected for the Commerce Design Brussels Awards 2025.
