Alica Bakery / Studio Etienne Bastormagi
When the owner of the farm-to-table eatery and bakery decided to launch its first flagship in the Port de la Mer development in Jumeirah, Dubai, Beirut-based studio Etienne Bastormagi was contacted to lead the architectural design. The studio spearheaded the project with a series of strategic collaborations, bringing together regional designers and artists, opening conversations about the land, contextuality, materiality, and what it means to be inspired by the local culture. This collective aimed to create a local aesthetic that would align with the eatery's concept. Using natural materials such as wood, paper, and leather, the eatery's overarching aesthetic was guided by earthy tones and colors reflecting the locally sourced menu.
