Slice Shop
a modern dining experience with timeless italian influence
WAKE was entrusted with designing the interior for Ceres, an artisan pizza shop that merges modern design with the timeless charm of traditional Italian pizzerias. Our team handled the architecture, interior design, and project management, delivering a space that reflects the client’s vision for a welcoming, contemporary dining experience.
The design emphasizes craftsmanship, featuring exposed brick walls, sleek wood elements, and industrial lighting that together create an inviting and warm atmosphere. The layout was thoughtfully planned to maximize seating while maintaining an open and airy feel, ensuring a comfortable environment for guests to enjoy their meal.
Our approach focused on integrating the kitchen, dining area, and bar to enhance both functionality and visual appeal. We collaborated closely with the client to ensure the design met their brand identity and operational needs. From the initial concept to final completion, we managed each phase to ensure a seamless and timely delivery.
The result is a distinctive restaurant that captures the essence of artisanal pizza while providing a stylish and unforgettable dining experience.
