Zibibbo Restaurant

For my birthday Ryan took me to Zibobbo (you can see more about them here: http://www.zibibbo.co.nz/)

They have a bar downstairs and restaurant upstairs. It’s all very warm and welcoming while still looking fresh and clean.

The photos are a bit dismal – I didn’t want to use the flash and blind the patrons all round. But hopefully you get the idea.

The walls were painted orange, green and brown with some walls in wood cladding. Sounds horrific – but it all worked somehow.

Green on the two ends, orange on one long side and brown on the other long side. I think maybe it works because there is very little wall area – most of the wall being taken up by windows or art or backs of the booth seating.

The lighting included some cool pleated linen tube pendants and some box lights.

The majority of the art on the walls was for sale.

Looking around the corner, there is a very nifty piece of art – black background with white line figures. Cool box lamp
