A New Chapter for Café Osiris: Restaurant Revitalization | Zane Tetere-Sulce

In the transformation of Café Osiris, the fusion of two spaces has been a subtle yet impactful change, enhancing the connection with the adjacent 'Telpa'. This integration introduces a new dimension to the venue, marked by the 'Eye of Hours' centerpiece, crafted from versatile tables. Green terrazzo marble, a nod to the past, is beautifully restored and paired with new elements, maintaining the venue's historic appearance. The use of black wood, a material that has also been used in the original interior design, has been seamlessly integrated, ensuring that the updated design still reflects the essence of Café Osiris's rich legacy.

In revitalizing Café Osiris, one of Riga's oldest and most iconic restaurants, OAD embraced the challenge of modernizing this beloved venue while preserving its rich history and character. Our design approach was meticulously crafted to enhance the restaurant's ambiance, focusing on improving functionality and guest comfort without losing the essence that made and still makes Café Osiris a legendary gathering spot for intellectuals and creatives. By balancing contemporary design elements with the venue's traditional charm, we ensured that every corner of the restaurant continues to tell its storied past while offering a refreshed and inviting atmosphere. This project showcases OAD's ability to weave the old with the new, ensuring that Café Osiris remains a cherished landmark in Riga's culinary and cultural scene.
