When I spotted the photos of this exquisite restaurant, the first thing I noticed after the fact that it is in an interior of a chapel, was the beautiful grand lighting fixture. Reading more about the project, I realized it is by none other than my favorite lighting design company, .PSLAB from Lebanon, a company I can proudly say I have worked with on a project before.
Designed by Piet Boon, the’ Jane’ is meant to be a fine dining restaurant run by Michelin star chef Sergio Herman and chef Nick Bril with the theme of ‘fine dining meets rock and roll’.

One of the fist designers to introduce copper in modern interiors and in a very flamboyant way was Tom Dixon. His interiors are known to have copper as the main finishing element and I think he has done an amazing job so far.

The main features are the pendant light in the center and custom made honey comb copper wall. The seating is mostly ‘lounging’ with large booths and armchairs that are part of the designer’s collection.
