SOL Restaurant
At Boom Project, the SOL Restaurant in Chișinău harmonizes Art Deco and steampunk with contemporary design, channeling the warmth of a solar deity through its radiant interiors and dynamic spatial experiences.
Design Concept
SOL takes inspiration from the mythological solar deity who embodies warmth, light, and life. This mythic energy is channeled into every design detail—from the central solar tower that anchors the space, to custom-crafted furniture and ancient-inspired murals that narrate the restaurant’s story.
The design seamlessly fuses Art Deco, loft, and steampunk elements with contemporary aesthetics. Textured concrete, rusted metal, natural stone, and tactile wood form the material palette, while hues of sun-soaked amber, ochre, and gold suffuse the interiors with a radiant warmth.
Spatial Experience
• Ground Floor: A dramatic bar crowned by a soaring solar tower sets the tone. Deco-patterned metalwork and sculptural lighting evoke celestial grandeur.
• Second Floor: Intimate cocktail zones and curated tasting rooms framed by sun god murals and bespoke furnishings. A dual-sided wine display acts as a functional divider and visual centerpiece.
• Third Floor: A summer terrace adorned with natural planks and raw stone overlooks La Izvor Park. Cozy lounge-style seating invites long conversations under the sky.
