This project marks the beginning of our work on a large-scale hotel and production complex, which we have been actively developing in recent months.
Located in the outskirts of Yerevan, Armenia, this distillery building is surrounded by fruit orchards and serves as both a production facility and a venue for tastings and events.

General Concept
The centerpiece of the space is a high-tech distillation apparatus operating in a closed sterile cycle. Measuring 5 meters in height and 6 meters in length, with copper and stainless steel elements, it became the focal point and starting inspiration for the entire interior.
To complement its industrial aesthetic, we incorporated a carefully curated mix of materials and textures, blending modern elegance with a raw, authentic atmosphere.
