The hospitality experience
Local Siftah
The “living room” space is already visible from the outside, peeking in and inviting to come inside.
He welcomes those who come to the place and produces “Siftah” for an experience that is all about fine Jerusalem culinary hospitality.
Order and hierarchy
The space is organized on a central axis visible from the entrance: to the right is the living room and in the center of the space is an “R” shaped bar about 10 meters long.
To the left of the bar there are intimate seating areas suitable for different amounts of people.
A new interpretation of an ancient tradition
“How do you create a new interpretation for a place that contains the rich cultural diversity of Jerusalem and that is in its urban center?”
"An intimate space within an open space"
Along the central axis of the space – niches are created that “bite” from the walls and create intimate corners that are softly lit and equipped with unique materials of glass, copper, leather and ceramics.
Collectibles
The variety of serving utensils collected by the owners of the place was given a place of honor in the large iron showcase that we renovated and which is located at the entrance.
The connection between traditional craft tools and industrial iron and concrete represents the connection between different eras and between contemporary urbanism and ancient tradition.
