What we build

Four kinds of job.

01

Commercial fit-out

Cafés, lounges and offices taken from a bare shell to opening day: structure, services, joinery, finishes, furniture.

As built: Golden Wings Coffee & Lounge
02

Residential renovation

Apartments and houses rebuilt room by room: floors, kitchens, bathrooms, joinery, lighting.

As built: Private residence
03

Remodelling

An existing space stripped back and rebuilt to a new plan, keeping the parts worth keeping.

As built: RAM Aviation offices
04

Design and build

The drawings and the site under one name, so what was drawn is what gets built.

How a job runs

Completed work

Three rooms, handed over.

The finished lounge at night: backlit cloud windows and a blue cove along the wall over glass tables and boucle chairs.

The practice

Adi Yosef is an interior designer who builds what he draws.

The practice designs and constructs interiors in Bucharest: a café taken from a concrete shell to opening night, an apartment in marble and velvet, offices for an aviation company. The drawings and the site sit under one name, so what was agreed on paper is what gets handed over.
