The entire space is divided into two areas – a longrunning patio and a central dining space. The patio is accentuated with wicker and cane chairs, along with patterned tiles that give it a café-like vibe, while the bar-dining area has the ideal, picture-perfect set-up for a fine dining experience. The state-of-the-art bar is paired with an onyx stone counter decorated with gold embellishments adding to the glitzy ambience. Each wall in the restaurant has a defining aspect. The bar area has a high mirrored arch display for the bar collection, while the adjacent walls on the left and right display a garden art wall and a collection of abstract paintings respectively. Lighting plays a very important role, and so Ditas incorporates a selection of disco balls and boho chandeliers for an eclectic theme to match the furniture. With Moroccan blue tiles, as a call back to their Delhi interiors, and electric mid-century furniture, the Soho living room style seating places you in a luxurious highend lounge. Plum by Bent Chair, Delhi If you’re a fan of all things quirky, then you’ll love Plum by Bent Chair’s eclectic, all out décor. Tons of colour, bold elements, vibrant décor and an elaborate mix of prints and patterns are some of the ways to define this lively space. In addition to its unique design scheme, Plum by Bent Chair also poses a one-of-a-kind experience with a retail restaurant format, allowing customers to enjoy a live interaction with Bent Chair’s vast product range, while enjoying a delicious meal. Interestingly, Bent Chair’s flagship store has been incorporated right above this outlet as well. One of the most instagrammable restaurants in India, Plum by Bent Chair gets its name from the striking plum hue that covers the walls and columns of the restaurant. This vibrant colour is then accentuated with Victorian artworks, mirrors and pretty planters. Interestingly, every piece of décor and furniture displayed in the restaurant comes from Bent Chair’s extensive range and is available on the catalogue for sale. Elements like mirrors, crystals, gold-plated stainless steel, florals and fabric lights work together to create a replica of the Garden of Eden with chrome-plated grapes and tiny hummingbirds dancing in between. Like most restaurants, the bar is the highlight of the restaurant. The back of the bar combines innovative design with light-responsive wallpaper; panels on the bar front further adds artistic details with illustrations inspired by the works of Japanese artist Miroco Machiko. Someplace Else, Mumbai A celebrated pub and performance space in Kolkata, Someplace Else in Mumbai is a multiverse of art, entertainment and cuisine, blending the magic of Kolkata with a reimagined vibrance that defines the city of Mumbai. Designed by London-based design firm Project Orange, the key difference in the Mumbai outlet is its use of colour in multitude – bold pattern, bright colours and standout décor that accentuates the Technicolor aesthetic of the space. Stepping into the restaurant, the edgy bar is the first thing you notice. The double-sided bar is adorned with a padded orange front and accented with a number of hand-blown glass spheres in jewel tones of amethyst, ruby and sapphire, hanging about the bar top. When it comes to décor, Someplace Else has incorporated the best of it. Mushroom-shaped lighting structures hanging from the ceiling, vibrant wall furnishings, plush seating and best of all, the technicoloured timber surrounding the stage area. The seating here is designed keeping in mind the live performances and acoustics. This means high bar stools, sofas and booths which create different settings for different moods. Along the glass wall behind the bar is a collection of vertical fins that create an optical illusion while providing a level of privacy for the diners.
