Biasol plays off Wes Anderson's whimsical style with The Budapest Cafe in Melbourne
Melbourne-based interior design studio Biasol used earthy hues and stylised architectural motifs to create a destination inspired by Wes Anderson's symmetry and nostalgic colour palette.
The Budapest Cafe in Carlton, Melbourne is Biasol's second edition of its Wes Anderson-informed concept, following a first location in Chengdu, China, that featured marble surfaces and pale pastel greens.
The 94 square-metre cafe has similar pastel shades, but in earthy colours that have been adapted to its Carlton setting and audience.Â

"Our design draws on Anderson's meticulous, memorable and magical worlds to create an inviting destination with whimsical character and mythical scenes," Biasol founder Jean-Pierre Biasol told Dezeen. "We were also inspired by his symmetry and quirky set designs; vivid and nostalgic colour palettes; and the sentiment that infuses his films," Biasol continued.Â
Caned chairs and banquette seating fill the space
The studio played with depth by applying dark tones like terracotta and orange to the walls, while softer beige and sand hues blanket the fanciful elements in the foreground ? including focal archways reminiscent of Wes Anderson's 2014 feature film, The Grand Budapest Hotel.
"We evolved the design and experience to an earthy colour palette reflecting our local sensibilities," Biasol explained.
