This Nantes bar is a charming local watering hole in the town located in Western France. Called Le Narcisse Bar, the space is characterized by its industrial decor, with simple unvarnished wood furniture and teal accents that compliment items like the brass beer taps. The eclectic space was designed by Rodéo Basilic.
The space is tiny but the design does a lot to open it up; a balcony on a second floor looks down on the counter and main section of the bar, creating an atmosphere akin to that of a private apartment. The menu is a magnet board that plays up the industrial theme, while the blank white walls are complemented by the lower portion, which are painted in teal.
