This bar is a destination by itself -the top bar in Santorini, centrally located in Fira, offering a privileged view of the caldera, bearing a historical name associated with its former owner, Franco Colombo. Our renovation concerns the redesign of pergolas, a new functional organization of the bar, upgrading the entry sequence (a fairly complex route with various landings and stairs) and creating a new signature overview, the image from above.
This constitutes its predominant façade for the numerous visitors on the main path of Fira heading to the zigzag walkway to the harbor –657 steps that one may descent with mules. For this image from above we designed a colorful wooden “carpet” -a kind of “parquet” with a gradient to lighter tones towards the horizon.
