Restaurant LEON is created as an oasis of nature in the city bustle, where guests can enjoy the atmosphere of calmness and harmony. The Harmony of Essence concept reflects the idea of unity between man and nature, the search for inner balance and harmony. Restaurant LEON can become a place where guests can relax from city hustle, immerse themselves in the natural atmosphere and find inner peace. The central element of the interior is a tree that unites the natural theme of the entire space, from which lines and semantic zones of the interior radiate.The reception desk in the form of a stone composition symbolizes naturalness and simplicity, which are the main principles of eco-style.The concept of green landscapes made of moss with vertical landscape lights is based on the idea of "Harmony of Essence." Moss symbolizes vitality, perseverance and adaptability. In the context of restaurant LEON, it serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving nature, its uniqueness and beauty. Lights in the form of vertical sticks represent the symbol of light, enlightenment and spiritual development. They may remind us of the search for harmony and balance within ourselves and in the surrounding world.The landscape composition with moss and a sculpture of two hands touching each other symbolizes unity and interaction of different elements. A concrete hand and a hand covered with moss represent two different elements that, despite their differences, interact with each other. This symbolizes the unity and interaction between man and nature. Symbiosis of Man and Nature: Restaurant LEON becomes a place where man and nature interact and connect. Circularity and Interaction: Swings in the shape of a wooden circle symbolize the cyclicality of life, eternal movement and interconnection of all living beings. Guests of the restaurant can immerse themselves in the atmosphere of harmony with nature and feel their place in the endless flow of life.Two large totem poles with glowing resin in the middle and abstract sculptures on top symbolize spirituality and connection with ancestors. Totem poles are a traditional element of the culture of many peoples who used them to express their beliefs and spiritual convictions. Glowing resin may symbolize spiritual enlightenment or connection with higher powers.Wooden shingles are an eco-friendly and original finishing material that brings a sense of natural proximity and warmth into the interior. As we know, wood in the interior not only gives the room a special charm, but also contributes to the creation of a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. Thus, wooden shingles on two opposite walls can serve as a kind of "screen" that will reflect and amplify the positive emotions and energy of guests.Decorative plaster under rough stone, as an element of nature, is used to create a brutal decoration to emphasize the connection with the environment. This contrasting element is an excellent background for plants and natural forms, even more emphasizing their beauty.A waterfall on glass: Modern technologies will be used to create a waterfall on glass, while maintaining simplicity and minimalism in design. This will symbolize the aspiration for perfection and innovation, without forgetting about natural values. Restaurant LEON will stand out for its ecological sustainability, using natural materials, energy-efficient technologies and caring for the preservation of nature. The water in the waterfall will circulate in a recycling system, minimizing resource consumption. The waterfall on glass will serve as a symbol of purity, transparency and harmony. Its smooth movement and glow in the light will create an atmosphere of calmness and tranquility, inviting guests on a journey of self-discovery and inner transformation.

Ceiling compositions in the form of directed bars, formed into a smooth shape: Smooth shapes of the bar composition on the ceiling will remind us of the continuous movement of life and energy, creating an atmosphere of dynamism and transformation. This will symbolize the aspiration for development, growth and acceptance of change. Bars on the ceiling will complement other elements of the interior, such as natural materials, greenery and light, creating a harmonious combination between modernity and nature. This will emphasize the importance of balance and unity in life.LED screens: LED screens will serve not only for showing art installations, but also for creating an atmosphere of virtual nature. Guests of the restaurant will be able to immerse themselves in the world of beautiful forests, oceans or mountain landscapes, reminding us of the importance of preserving the environment. LED screens will symbolize the symbiosis of man and technology, which helps us better understand and appreciate the surrounding nature. This will remind us of the need for balance between the digital and natural world.Wooden planters lined with semi-circular slats will symbolize the harmonious interaction between man and nature. Plants surrounded by warm wood will create an atmosphere of coziness and naturalness, reminding us of the importance of maintaining environmental balance. Lighting of the plant containers will add an element of life and dynamics to the restaurant's interior. Light will symbolize energy and growth, and plants will remind us of the cycle of life and the cyclicality of nature.VIP area with wooden shingles on the wall and masks is a corner where guests can enjoy a unique atmosphere filled with cultural symbols and natural beauty. This location can become a place for inspiration, relaxation and immersion in the world of exotic adventures. Masks are a symbol of cultural heritage and traditions of various cultures and times. Their presence in the interior can create a unique atmosphere of mystery, exoticism and adventure. Their abundance is interpreted by the fact that all visitors come here to feel natural calmness, remove their "social" masks and enjoy communication in a company or independent communication with the natural interior. Milled panels create a reflection of light on the masks, reminding us that in different surroundings we can become completely different people. Suspended lamps of different levels symbolize the social significance of each individual person: regardless of the size of capital or health reserve, every person should bring light and benefit to people.Japanese rock garden with bonsai is a symbol of harmony with nature and used to create an atmosphere that will encourage reflection on the importance of a multifaceted approach in any matter. The rock garden, turned upside down into a vertical plane, is used to create a unique interior design that will attract attention of visitors with a change of the usual perception plane. This element will make us think about the beauty of the things we are accustomed to, even if there is a problem – we can turn it in such a way that we feel at ease and this brings only positive results for our subsequent life.
