Camo, a 10,000 sqft fine-dining Restaurant & Bar design, located in Noida, Delhi NCR, redefines experiential dining by weaving architectural poetry into every inch of its design. Built around the angular lines of an existing structure, the layout begins with a captivating dialogue between two forms, a mirrored angular addition that complements the original, creating a central courtyard that becomes the heart of the space.
Camo – a Restaurant & Bar Design Redefines Experiential Dining | Studio Dashline
This courtyard, with its angular wrapped staircase, acts as a theatrical prelude. Drawing guests upward to the rooftop terrace while leading them inward through a central pathway that feels like an open-armed invitation.
The entrance, framed by glimpses of outdoor seating, the courtyard’s architectural grace, and a linear fountain tracing the edge of the compound, sets an evocative tone for the journey ahead.
Camo’s essence is rooted in its culinary focus: an Indian specialty menu highlighting tandoors and grills. The design, therefore, adopts a rustic, muted, and deeply rooted aesthetic, aligning seamlessly with the warmth and vibrancy of the cuisine.
Drawing inspiration from the modest grandeur of Turkish bazaars, the spatial design integrates courtyards, water elements, and outdoor seating, all while enveloping the structures in a warm, earthy palette of muddy Mediterranean lime-clay plaster. The result is a space that radiates both comfort and quiet sophistication.
The two angular volumes, though harmonized by materiality, express unique identities. The rectangular form on the left invites casual indulgence, with its thoughtfully planned bench seating adorned with planters, linear cane pendant lights, and sofa seating along the edges.
Anchoring this space is a striking bar, a visual and functional centrepiece. The bar is clad in black cobble tiles, with a sleek black grooved granite counter topped by an elegant black, grey, and white marble slab.
Its shelving, also grooved in black granite, is highlighted by an overhead rafter structure with integrated stretch ceiling lights. The long, linear wall opposite features debossed abstract shapes, a subtle nod to Persian motifs that evoke an understated textural richness.
Contrasting this, the right volume boasts a pyramidical roof crowned with a skylight, creating a sublime play of natural light and shadows.
The stepped ceiling cascading inward and the live kitchen clad in dark chocolate terracotta bricks exude a sense of grounded luxury.
The juxtaposition of the terracotta with the lime-clay plastered walls creates a textural harmony, while the space itself offers formal seating at community tables, interspersed with casual bench arrangements along the periphery.
Planters and courtyards flank this structure, and six full-height windows. Three of which open into the outdoor seating. Further, blurring the line between indoors and outdoors, enhancing spatial depth and serenity.
A bridge connects the two volumes, arching over the central reception area and symbolically unifying the experience of choice. It allows visitors to decide which world to explore first.
Beyond the interiors, the compound expands into an outdoor oasis, featuring intimate rooftop seating at Sora, a private bar for events, and casual spaces for relaxed evenings with stunning views.
The compound thoughtfully integrates fountains, greenery, live kitchens, and community tables. Further, transforms it into a self-sustained retreat. It is a sensory escape in the heart of the city.
Camo is not just a space; it’s an experience. A harmonious blend of architectural storytelling and culinary celebration. Here, every detail contributes to an atmosphere of understated luxury and timeless charm.
