TABRA by Andreea Cornila presents a restaurant interior built around saturated color, controlled lighting, and spatial contrast. TABRA by Andreea Cornila centers a burgundy-drenched palette applied across walls, ceilings, seating, and drapery, forming a continuous visual field throughout the space. A singular skylight introduces a focused beam of natural light, while small circular wall fixtures provide diffused illumination that interacts with glossy tables and textured upholstery.
Andreea Cornila’s layout organizes the interior through shifting volumes and material transitions that guide movement between dining areas and the bar. Curved chrome cladding wraps the bar structure, reflecting the herringbone flooring, while suspended glass racks and built-in cabinetry define vertical space. Textile archways reference the site’s historical layout, replacing original openings with upholstered portals that maintain circulation while altering spatial weight. An open kitchen sits within view, removing separation between preparation and dining areas.
