Sant Ambroeus Cafe, Aspen
Restaurant by Giampiero Tagliaferri in Aspen, CO
The Cafe design is the result of a balanced tension between brutalist elements and chic and comfortable details. Set aside from the classic chalet look, the design drove inspiration from the Alpine modernism movement mastered by Carlo Mollino, Franco Albini, Charlotte Perriand and Marcel Breuer. The presence of concrete elements like the counter and the bench, or the flagstone floor is counterbalanced by “chic Milanese style” vintage furniture pieces.
