Midsummer是一家位于莫斯科核心地区的休闲餐厅。该项目的概念基于两种文化的相互融合与鲜明对比—葡萄酒和啤酒，这样的理念不仅体现在餐厅菜单上的丰富选择上，也体现在餐厅室内的每一个细节中。

Midsummer is a casual dining restaurant located in the very centre of Moscow. The concept of the project is based on the mixing and contrasting of two cultures – wine and beer, which is reflected not only in the abundance of choices on the restaurant’s menu but also in every detail of the interior.

餐厅整体风格参考了木质谷仓的质感，夏季乡村的氛围，这也体现在餐厅的命名上。因此，餐厅的造型元素之一是带有十字基线的大型木质天花板，能够遮挡住所有的工程设备。整个空间中丰富的织物呼应着主题：重构木结构建筑中的窗帘。悬挂在天花上的甘草、原木、手工材料与造型—这一切将我们带回到惬意的乡村生活中。尖尖的玻璃小鸟更是为空间增光添彩。同时，整个项目采用现代风格的设计，与主题融合，呈现出迷人的效果。

The basis of the image is a reference to a wooden barn, the atmosphere of summer in the countryside, which is also reflected in the restaurant’s name. Thus, one of the shaping elements is a wooden massive ceiling with crosshairs, that makes it possible to hide all the engineering communications. The abundance of textiles in the whole space also refers us to this theme: a kind of rethinking of curtains in wooden dwellings. Dry grass suspended from the ceiling, wooden logs, man-made materials and shapes – all of these brings us back to the relaxed atmosphere of country life. Pointed glass-cast birds complete this image. At the same time, the whole project is designed in a modern way, which in combination with this theme gives a fascinating effect.

该餐厅位于一座建于19世纪，历史悠久的建筑中。我们十分注重遗产保护，将原砖石结构进行修缮与局部保护，还将金属结构强化，使整个空间更具生气。

The restaurant is located in a historic 19th-century building. We paid due respect to the heritage, and thus preserved and partially restored the existing brickwork and reinforced the metal structures, which gave liveliness to the whole space.

该室内呈现出元素的对比，形式、材料和元素令人惊叹地共存于同一空间并形成互补。软木、天然石材和织物制成的弯曲隔板，与葡萄酒美学相融合，结合更多粗犷的材料—原木、石材、皮革、金属、巨型原木和类似锡桶的灯具。这些看似不搭配的元素营造出一种独特、宜人且温馨的氛围。

The interior is put together on a contrast of shapes, materials, and elements that surprisingly coexist in one space and complement each other. Bent partitions made of cork, natural stone, and textiles, referring to wine aesthetics, join more rough materials – raw wood, stone, leather, metal, massive logs, and lamps resembling tin barrels. These seemingly incompatible elements create a special, welcoming, and warm atmosphere.

我们的主要任务是塑造一个独一无二的空间。舒适的灯光，惬意的氛围，温暖的色调和富有质感的材料带顾客进入这个温馨、舒适、亲和的环境中，而这正是每一个大城市中心所缺乏的氛围。

Our main task was to create a unique space. Cosy lighting, a relaxed atmosphere, warm tones, and tactile materials transport guests into a homely, pleasant, familiar surrounding that is so badly lacking in the centre of every metropolis.
