The restaurant’s design was inspired by early C20th Italian Futurist artist, Giacomo Balla, a founding member of the avant-garde movement Futurismo that celebrated modernity.
The Futurists looked to progressive technology, speed and urban landscapes as subject matter for a new style of painting that presented a shift from Italy’s classical traditions. Their paintings are typically kinetic and often convey motion and energy through techniques like fragmentation, repetition, and multiple viewpoints.
