The architectural contrast between the existence and the reconstruction, the old and the new, informed the concept for the interior design and led to the leitmotif „Precious Roughness“, attributes being not less contrasting. Rough materials were treated in a precious way or put into a precious context and in reverse precious objects and materials were combined and set in contrast to the roughness. A principle of refinement and processing that is quite similar to the culinary art of chef Namo Wrede whose staggering and sophisticated creations are served on Mary Janes‘ plates. According to this tin-free steel has been impregnated and refined with oil and is used throughout the entire space to form large corridors functioning as passages, to cover the bar or to hide the heaters. Huge wooden oak boards treated with the yakisugi method, a treatment where wood is burned and therewith conserved, are placed as tables in order to provide a supportive and suitable backdrop for the dishes to shine and to be able to group guests together as well as to separate them in intimate togetherness.

To be flexible regarding the illumination of the tables and to avoid cables hanging down from the ceiling customized floor versions of the Equatore lamp by Fontana Arte are positioned in the centreline of the tables. Its downward directed light perfectly brings the dishes into focus whereas the upward directed one slightly enlightens the dark-hued surrounding architecture enabling the guest to feel comfortably secure and to fully concentrate on the menu.

The smaller gallery space with its dark grey wall color equipped with the filigree Arrengements light by Flos and huge high-polished stainless steel mirrors are the perfect backdrop for art pieces to survey and complements this experiental space.
