Fino Vino banner

Fino Vino is a playful celebration of country and city, the contrast and the point at which two-things come together. It is a coming-of-age story for a restaurant that began its life in a small town, moved to a big winery, and finally settled in the city.

Think simplicity mixed with antiquity. Custom detailing competing with the reclaimed. Curated with the haphazard. A mix of textures, velvety and granular, crunchy and smooth, earthy and glossy. The building’s layers have been peeled back to expose a masonry interior made of warm, earthy materials, just like the food and hospitality on offer.

The fit out is a celebration of the South Australian terroir incorporating stone sourced from near the Flinders Rangers, and highlights some of South Australia’s emerging and established makers and creatives.

About the
Professional

The team at studio-gram are collaborators. They enjoy working together with all project team members and client groups. Their project teams range from art directors and photographers, to botanists and permaculturists, through to audio specialists and mixologists.

The practice is client-focused. They are constantly challenging themselves to create compelling architecture that fits an exacting brief. Each project is treated with the same respect, research and investigations as the last, creating designs that meet the aspirations of the clients, respond to site conditions, and create experiences for future occupants.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
