The very essence of Blanca is illuminated by its existing beauty. Thus accentuated by a stunning long French window that generously bathes the entire space in natural light, creating an inviting ambiance from the very entrance.
The ground floor of this Delhi Cafe orchestrates a meticulously planned symphony of design elements.
Moreover, it gracefully houses the main kitchen, a strategically placed coffee counter, and an elegant L-shaped staircase that guides visitors to the enchanting first floor.
Further upon stepping into Blanca, patrons are immediately immersed in a captivating visual experience – the long kitchen wall adorned with breathtaking artwork by House of Berserk.
This artwork, a testament to pastel hues and organic, free-spirited patterns, becomes the soulful visual identity of the entire restaurant.
The coffee counter, intricately designed and strategically positioned, introduces a delightful play of verticality with different lines of tiles, creating a beautiful contrast with the organic shapes adorning the kitchen wall.
Moving further, the seating arrangement on the ground floor is a thoughtful curation, ensuring the maximization of passage space. Ledge seating, adorned with step details beneath the cushions, coexists seamlessly with planters. Whereas, the loose four-seaters, and sofa and lounge seating, provide a plethora of choices to cater to the diverse tastes of patrons.
A pastel olive-green metal staircase stands out as a ground-floor highlight, artfully bisecting a partition wall and marking the transition to the first floor.
Ascending to the first floor, patrons encounter a sensory feast. The central marble and tile-clad bar counter takes centre stage, adorned with an enchanting mix of patterns and textures.
The ceiling divides the expanse into four sections with step-in vaults. Each housing Victorian chandeliers, creating an ambiance of refined elegance.
The first-floor seating arrangement revolves around the bar, offering an eclectic mix of diverse seating options. Planter ledges around the staircase introduce a touch of greenery. Thus providing a refreshing and natural aesthetic to the elevated floor.
Moreover, Blanca, with its harmonious marriage of Victorian elegance and coastal bohemian vibes, emerges as a haven of creativity and sensory delight.
It extends an invitation to patrons to immerse themselves in a space where classic meets contemporary, and every meticulously crafted detail also contributes to an unforgettable dining and socializing experience.
Blanca is a journey into a world where the boundaries of design are pushed. Moreover, the fusion of contrasting elements creates a unique tapestry of beauty and sophistication.
