Shabour

[ 2019 ]

Shabour. The word means to break, to shatter in Hebrew.
The tone was set, and the brief defined clearly by Assaf Granit and Tomer Lanzman: the place had to disrupt expectations, break free from the past in order to reconnect with raw matter.

To achieve this, it was necessary to strip away the linings and boxings that once shaped the interior, revealing the original structure of stone and brick. This pursuit of rawness continued throughout the restaurant, using, and even overusing, concrete, granite, metal, stainless steel, and iron, from floor to ceiling.

There is nothing soft or showy here. The walls are bare. The lighting is discreet, almost invisible. The kitchen, lined with a single, long stone counter, sets the rhythm of the space.

A play of natural materials and candlelight. No exterior signage to read, no phone number to dial. This is an address for insiders, discreet, whispered from one to another.
