The bar is located in a historic building from the early twentieth century, its predecessor being a declining establishment. The main task was to impart a new character to this place, worthy of its location in the city center, while also creating an intimate atmosphere for conversation over a drink, with the condition that the implementation costs do not exceed the allocated budget. The intimacy of the space is created by the rough plaster of the walls and the segmented vaults with dark paint. In contrast, the bar area is lined with fine copper sheets. This noble metal adds elegance to the space and infuses it with energy. The attribute of copper also brought the establishment a new name. The original chairs, new tables welded from I-beams, and other furniture pieces were unified into a shade of blacksmith's black. The restrooms are located at the back of the establishment. I asked my twelve-year-old brother to adjust their appearance to his liking. The bar space is visually connected to the arcade and the square by a glass window and a garden between the pillars of the arcade.
