House of Wine is a Czech wine bar that is located in Znojmo — "a walled town in the Czech Republic's winemaking region of Moravia." Spread across two buildings with rich heritage, the business commissioned local architects Chybik + Kristof to create a welcomingly sophisticated ambiance for guests.
In the quest to revamp the aesthetic and layout of the Czech wine bar, Chybik + Kristof worked extensively toward preserving select elements in the existing buildings that embraced Moravian tradition and mimicked "the atmosphere of the region's traditional wine cellars."
The layout presents a series of interconnected rooms that support the operations of the House of Wine, while the cave-like structure allows for individuals to have an intimately cozy experience.
