ROUGMARINE BISTRO MIMARA

Our inspiration came from Copenhagen, where simple, urban interiors naturally find their place within historic buildings, adding new energy and making them relevant to a contemporary audience.

We wanted to bring the same approach to the new Rougemarin. Through a series of subtle yet thoughtful interventions, the goal was to create a welcoming, relaxed and unpretentious space where people feel comfortable, while allowing the original architecture to retain its character.

A contemporary colour palette, warm ambient lighting, playful linear light elements and a distinctive bar introduce a new urban rhythm to the historic setting. The lighting, in particular, plays an important role in shaping the atmosphere, creating a recognisable visual signature that runs throughout the space.

Rather than adding unnecessary decoration or recreating the past, the intention was to create a place that respects its architectural context while embracing the rhythm and energy of contemporary city life.
