Details

Set under the medieval arcades in the town’s historical centre, this 600-year-old building was stripped down to the core as part of a comprehensive renovation project, and refurbished with the greatest care and consideration for its original appearance. The interior design displays tasteful restraint, while also playing with accents selected to emphasise the value and impact of the ancient walls and vaults. The renovation works were carried out using only natural materials, and the day-to-day activities of both the restaurant and the rental suites are conducted according to eco-friendly principles.

The Jury‘s Statement

The sensitive revitalization of a historic arcade building gives »fink restaurant & suites« a distinctive, sustainable identity. Precisely placed accents emphasize the value of the old structure, while natural materials and a consistently ecological concept shape the spaces in a forward-looking and stylish way. The successful balance of respect, simplicity, and emotionality impresses at the highest level and sets an impressive benchmark for public interiors.
