Furniture does more than furnish a room. It shapes hospitality.

Every piece for Pretty Patty was designed specifically for this project.

Not as a standalone collection, but as part of the same spatial language as the counter, the lighting, the signs, and the circulation.

That precision matters because furniture influences posture, distance, rhythm, and the way people gather, share the space and return.

In hospitality designing furniture is never neutral.

Can furniture change the way people stay in a place?

The ground floor had to work in one glance.

At street level, Pretty Patty needed to feel immediate, active, and easy to read.

The counter, ceiling letters, seating, warm cream tiles, and blue joints were not designed as separate features.
They were arranged to shape arrival, focus attention, and give the space a strong first reading without overload.

What matters is not one element on its own, but how they work together to define the first contact between the guest and the place.

A hospitality space often succeeds in the first few seconds.

What makes a hospitality space feel immediate to you?

We approach hospitality through operations and use:
How high a table sits.
How long a body wants to stay.
How light settles. How sound carries.
How a seat gives support.
How service moves without interruption.

At Alba, hospitality is shaped through these small decisions.

What matters is not mood alone, but the relation between bodies, objects, and room.

At Alba, furniture was not added after the space.

Tables, counters, and seating help organise posture, service, distance, and gathering.
They clarify how each part of the restaurant is meant to be occupied.
