Ivy Studio Blends Vintage Details to Buvette Daphnée Restaurant
Amy Duong — May 5, 2024 — Art & Design
Montreal-based design firm Ivy Studio is the mind behind the Buvette Daphnée restaurant. It functions as a wine bar and fine dining space in an old industrial building in Ottawa. The studio tapped inspiration from Montreal's retro dining spaces -- this references the tonal palette of brown, cream, and caramel.
To add a pop of contrast, the interiors are also adorned with burnt orange and blue detailing. Ivy Studio speaks about the restaurant and its design concept, stating "The establishment, led by a head chef with deep roots in Quebec and years of experience in Ottawa, aims to showcase a blend of both cultures through the eyes of a nostalgic francophone residing in the country's capital.
