Isabella by Italian Street Kitchen embraces the essence of Italy's rich cultural heritage, drawing inspiration from its enchanting courtyards, terracotta streets, and vibrant hues of floral patterns. The interior design concept aims to transport guests into a charming Roman courtyard, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that complements the delicious cuisine.
The colour palette is carefully chosen to reflect the rich tones found in Rome's architecture and natural surroundings. Earthy terracotta, warm ochre, deep burgundy, and lush green will dominate the space, evoking the essence of the city's historic streets and courtyards. These colours will be infused throughout the space, from the walls and flooring to the upholstery and decorative elements.
To recreate the texture and feel of Italian courtyards, natural materials will take centre stage. Terracotta tiles will adorn the floors, adding warmth and authenticity to the dining experience. Exposed concrete walls will enhance the rustic charm, while elements like wrought iron accents and wooden furniture will add a touch of traditional craftsmanship.
Floral patterns will bring a vibrant and joyful element to the design, reminiscent of the blooming flowers found in Italian courtyards. Upholstery, throw pillows, and carpets featuring rich floral motifs will add pops of colour and create a lively ambiance. These patterns is inspired by traditional Italian floral designs, reflecting the influence of the country's artistic heritage.
Different seating areas within the restaurant will recreate the cosy nooks and inviting spaces found in Italian courtyards. Intimate booths with lush greenery and hanging chandeliers will offer privacy and a sense of enclosure. Alfresco-style tables and chairs will be arranged to mimic the casual and relaxed ambience of dining in an outdoor courtyard. A central communal table can be placed at a focal point, inviting guests to gather and share meals in true Italian fashion. For a moodier environment, the upstairs lounge allows you to enjoy cocktails while peering down into the heart of the kitchen from the balcony.
To further enhance the Italian courtyard atmosphere, decorative accents inspired by the city's history and culture will be strategically placed throughout the space. Antique-inspired pottery, traditional Roman artwork, and decorative mirrors will add an authentic touch. Externally, climbing plants, hanging baskets, and trellises will bring a sense of natural beauty, completing the immersive experience.

Our studio specializes in design for behaviour.
We have done so for almost 30 years and in this time we have learned a tremendous amount about how people behave naturally and instinctively within these social environments. We have learned the hard way that in order to design successful venues, we needed to place predictive human behaviour at the heart of what we do. We capture succinctly how most people behave most of the time in order to design spaces for the most joy and ultimately the most success. This assists us in capturing the spirit of place.
