With the best view, guests can enjoy fantastic food at Restaurant Tiende. Then they can go upstairs to the wine bar Den Fede Drue with views of Aarhus city, Aarhus Ø, forest and sea.
The venue was completely raw and empty when the restaurant's concept and interior design had to be developed. Third.space had to create the interior design concept in collaboration with the owners and the restaurant director. The design had to be inspired by the view of the surrounding nature with beach, forest and sea. The interior design should be light, flexible and support the good experience.
The design is based on creating a space where people want to stay and hang out in the restaurant, wine bar and on the associated terraces. The space is built flexibly and with a cosy interior, regardless of whether it is set up for regular ala carte for smaller parties or individuals - or for a larger corporate event.
The interior design supports the experience with the breathtaking views and fantastic food and wine. Furniture, room dividers and lighting are designed/chosen so that there is transparency throughout the rooms to maximise the natural light and views.
The intimate atmosphere and cosiness is the framework for the guests' experience of the interior design. The different furniture and arrangements create a more homely atmosphere than if the same interior had been duplicated many times. The different Bolia chairs provide guests with a comfortable seating experience while the high-quality craftsmanship can withstand commercial use.
Bolia's Nordic design is a perfect match with the aesthetic expression chosen for Tiende.
To achieve the unique interior design solution, we had many customised pieces of furniture made, including the ceiling, sofa, waiter station, bar cabinet/wine fridge and bar counter.
The waiter station and bar cabinet/wine fridge are produced in stunning materials and a unique design. The back plate, antique brass, and oak wood, together with the soft, rounded shapes, create a sculptural expression in the room. And, of course, with all the functions and equipment required in a modern restaurant.
In the centre of the restaurant is the custom-made bench that continues up the wall - and turns into shelving - and further up to an impressive, slatted ceiling. The slats are cut to float like waves in the colour of driftwood. The ceiling softens the interior and provides a good acoustic effect. In addition, sound-absorbing Troldtekt panels are installed behind the slats to give guests a good sound experience, even when there are many guests in the restaurant.
As the building is made of concrete with large glass sections, there are many hard surfaces that need to be taken into account in terms of sound.
If you go upstairs from restaurant Tiende, you enter the atmospheric wine and cocktail bar, Den Fede Drue. With a selection of over 3,200 different wines, the interior design - with its darker design concept - provides space to immerse yourself in signature cocktails and the sommelier's personal recommendations. The darker décor and zone divisions with different types of furniture create a more intimate space where guests can relax and enjoy good company.
There has been a strong focus on the aesthetic experience that customers should feel comfortable in. The furniture in Den Fede Drue is a mix of customised furniture, sofas, lounge furniture and high tables. In general, the textiles are coarse and in deeper tones - combined with antique brass, glass, black leather, and marble.
The One A lamps hang iconically above the bar with their minimalist look and exclusive materials. The lighting in the wine bar is generally more dramatic and helps to create more ambience in the venue. Curtains, carpets, and furniture in soft, organic shapes soften the space and create a sensory experience.
In addition, the owners have added an extra touch with a selection of art that adds personality and charm to the space.
The distinct brand identity and decor help to attract guests to Den Fede Drue - and has its own identity but is also a great complement to Restaurant Tiende.
As a natural extension of the interior design, we have furnished the roof terraces. Along with the breathtaking views, the comfortable garden furniture and atmospheric planting lure guests outside. The design of the terraces allows you to start outdoors with a welcome drink before dining or for a meal outside in good weather. For the restaurant, this means that you can serve more people and create a setting for more atmospheres and types of events.
We have installed a large and impressive cork wall featuring Tiende and Den Fede Drues logos. The room, with its concrete walls and glass, has also been decorated with plants and a floating bouquet of dried flowers, creating striking contrasts that pique curiosity about the experience awaiting guests on the 10th and 11th floors.
"Third.space has created a flexible and cosy design for restaurant Tiende and wine bar Den Fede Drue in Aarhus Ø. The interior design emphasises the good experience with custom-made acoustic ceilings, cabinets and wardrobe, and furniture from Ilva and Bolia, creating an intimate atmosphere that invites guests to stay longer. The collaboration with interior designer Lisbeth has been fantastic, she really understood our needs for restaurant interior design."
