Beer Restaurant Verv

The owner of Verv, a beer restaurant, approached me with a challenge that sounded almost like a toast: to bring greenery into a space where sports enthusiasts and lovers of exceptional beers from around the world would gather. Not simply to decorate it, but to create an atmosphere that would make people want to stay for the second half — and a third pint.

The client entrusted me completely with both the design and its execution — and that trust became the wind in my sails.

My imagination ran wild. I didn't want to simply place a few planters on the floor. I decided that a masculine space deserved a story of its own.

A boat rose towards the ceiling — upside down.

Not a sailing ship, not a symbol of distant voyages, but an actual boat, turned upside down and suspended overhead. An unconventional design choice that challenges our perception of space: where the bottom should be, there is now the sky.

Around it, like an archipelago suspended in mid-air, floated islands of greenery: mosses, ferns, and cascading vines. Light filtered through the foliage, casting living shadows across the floor, shifting and changing throughout the day.

The walls became a jungle.

Greenery spread, intertwined, embraced the trees, and guided the eye upwards, towards the overturned boat hovering beneath the ceiling.

This wasn't simply decoration. It was a journey: from the walls to the floating islands, from the islands to the boat, and from the boat to a glass of beer.

An imaginative world created for a masculine setting: sports, beer, travel — and a jungle that reminds us that somewhere beyond the horizon, there are still undiscovered shores waiting to be explored.

The client placed his trust in me — and received more than an interior filled with greenery.

He received a story.

A story where every evening begins as an adventure and ends in good company.
