Lagotto by Flack Studio
Lagotto in Melbourne’s Fitzroy North is an all-day Italian cafe, wine bar and food store designed by Flack Studio. Inspired by the surrounding migrant architecture and the desire to evoke a strong European sensibility, Flack Studio has created a space that speaks of community and a desire for neighbourly connection. The design references the work of Italian modernist Gio Ponti, with a strong interplay of materials, finishes and detailing fostering a sense of tactility and nostalgia. The project also features custom American oak joinery, reminiscent of 1950s Italian furniture, pink terrazzo flooring, glossy burgundy lighting, a wide variety of stone, and aluminium venetian blinds, which diffuse light and can be adjusted throughout the day.
