Drawing from Austin’s Craftsman architecture and Arts and Crafts traditions, the interiors layer the city’s artisanal character with a distinctly Mediterranean influence. Intimate seating areas pair vintage silhouettes reupholstered in contrasting prints with antique rugs and wire-brushed oak floors, while a crenellated ceiling wrapped in a reinterpreted vintage wallcovering adds dimension overhead. Locally sourced cypress, treated with the Japanese Shou Sugi Ban technique, shapes the columns and back bar.

In the main dining room, olive green, lemongrass, golden ochre, and Mediterranean blues set the palette, complemented by varied seating silhouettes in patinated brass, oak, and leather. Together, the rich color and natural materials give the space warmth and depth.
