Kitzig Design Studios GmbH

A landmarked steel-and-glass building within Germany’s most visited zoological and botanical garden in Germany has been transformed into a colourful restaurant for Marché Mövenpick. Part of the outer wall of the adjacent historical monument Wilhelma Theatre was cleverly worked into the interior facade of the large restaurant area.

The tropical theme is omnipresent in the various zones of the restaurant, from the lively market square to the children’s area featuring “huts”, to the comfortable lounge sections. The centrepiece of the large light-flooded winter garden is an aviary-like pergola with colourful seating islands surrounded by half-height tropical design partitions and lush plants. Bamboo elements and wooden lights create authentic highlights. Bright animal and plant images adorn the walls of the restaurant and complete the captivating scenery of the lively jungle world.
