Erik Bratsberg designs the interior of the Persona restaurant in a way that complements the menu and cuisine. It nods to the chef's ambition, resulting in a chic ambiance. The Persona restaurant is located in the Stockholm neighborhood of Östermalm. The team takes on a multi-course approach to design, forming an enchanting dining experience that has been curated by founder chef Louis Cespedes and sommelier Jonatan Nyström.
Nyström notes, “Entering this beautiful space and then being led to the very homey lounge area is for a lot of guests surprising and very appreciated. Elements of surprise are hidden throughout the dining experience – for example the specially made tables that hide a drawer for cutlery and utensils.”
