MOSH Bar and Dinner, Bucharest, Romania restaurant
The MOSH Bar & Dinner, located at Strada Matei Millo 5 in Bucharest, Romania, is an interior design project by INNOCAD Architecture that opened in 2023. The 369 sqm space is conceived as a “Multitalented Space,” capable of transitioning seamlessly between fine dining, mixology, and club environments, aiming to provide an experience that extends beyond mere functional and aesthetic considerations. The design integrates hospitality, art, and design in a distinct manner.
The layout of MOSH Bar & Dinner is organized into three primary areas: a garden lounge, private dining, and a central 'epicenter.' The epicenter forms a room-in-room structure, housing a bar, two communal tables, and a DJ booth. This central area is equipped with a high-end sound system from Lambda Labs and features optimized acoustics to support its varied functions. All three main areas are unified under a built-in canopy, which serves as a cohesive architectural element.
To the left of the entrance, the garden lounge offers a serene atmosphere with an organic shape, enclosed by windows and abundant vegetation. This area extends visually into a planted forecourt, blurring the distinction between indoor and outdoor spaces, especially with the use of opening windows. A significant artistic feature in this lounge is “Manic Youth,” an artwork by Austrian sculptor Manfred Erjautz, which is suspended from the ceiling. This biophilic sculpture, crafted from the rhizome of a 100-year-old oak, was specifically commissioned for this hospitality design, contributing to the unique character of the venue.
For guests seeking more seclusion, a slightly elevated private dining area is available. This space is enclosed by translucent curtains, providing privacy and an exclusive setting for smaller gatherings. The conceptual foundation of the restaurant, including its logo, was also developed by INNOCAD. The logo is inspired by a place setting, with a circle as its core element, symbolizing a plate, social connection, and unity. This circular motif is subtly woven into the design through a fractal lighting concept and custom curtains that envelop the entire space, defining the private dining sections.
INNOCAD Architecture collaborated with 13&9 Design and Richard Taylor from the University of Oregon and Fractals Research to incorporate a science-based design solution aimed at enhancing user well-being. This involved the integration of a backlit fractal pattern into the epicenter’s suspended ceiling. This pattern, known for its stress-reductive qualities, projects immersive lighting onto the floor as dynamic, flying dots, creating an engaging visual experience. The ambiance of the venue can be adjusted through three distinct lighting scenes via a KNX system: a bright setting for dining, a dimmed atmosphere for post-dinner bar activities, and a party mode featuring a movable fractal light, allowing for adaptable environments throughout the day and night.
