7 Plates Cafe - Chicago, IL

7 Plates Cafe is the place that embodies the perfect blend of contemporary charm and cozy European comfort. As hospitality interior designers, we brainstormed through design ideas to create an atmosphere where great food can be enjoyed in an equally delightful setting.

Upon entering, you will be greeted by a warm ambiance that seamlessly combines contemporary design elements with a cozy and familiar feel. Our careful selection of blue hues creates a sense of tranquility and serenity, setting the stage for a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience.

The main objective was to strike a harmonious balance between aesthetics and functionality, and every detail at 7 Plates Cafe has been crafted with this principle in mind. The incorporation of wood accents brings a touch of natural warmth, adding a rustic charm that beautifully complements the overall design scheme. We have carefully chosen simple lighting fixtures, engaging an Italian vendor to custom craft the bulbs, with the main objective to create a warm and inviting glow, that enhances the overall ambiance. Our curated decor reflects a simple and unique style, paying attention to every element to ensure a cohesive and delightful environment for our customers.
