Planlux developed the architectural lighting design project of Scalla Restaurant by Altamira, interior design by Urban Jobs.
Located in the exclusive setting of Acarkent in Istanbul’s Beykoz district, Scalla offers its guests a new experience with every dish through its design, which blends contemporary interior details with dark wood tones. Deriving its name from the Italian word “scalare,” Scalla creates a detailed atmosphere that emphasizes the authenticity of Mediterranean cuisine.

The design of the restaurant was developed with an experience-oriented approach. The lighting design was crafted with modern sophistication, enhancing the ambiance while highlighting the architectural details of the space. This approach achieved a refined level of modernity that harmoniously integrates with the architectural vistas inspiring the restaurant’s concept.
The interior design focuses on the relationship between indoor and outdoor terrace spaces, featuring a layout that also allows guests to engage with the kitchen. Different zones, such as the show kitchen and private dining rooms, offer functional flexibility within the venue.
The bar area, meticulously designed as the focal point of the terrace, stands out with its details visible from every angle, accentuated by elegant touches. The terrace provides a seamless transition from day to night, working in harmony with the indoor aesthetic. Meanwhile, the curved glass façade establishes a strong connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.
The illuminated shelf details in the main hall guide guests throughout the space, while narrow-beam spotlights optimized for each table ensure an equal experience for all diners.
Custom-designed shell details integrate with seating arrangements and include built-in furniture details, such as integrated spotlights and shelf lighting, which not only define the artworks but also contribute to the atmosphere of the space.
Every detail has been meticulously considered. The decorative elements above the bar, the hidden spotlights integrated into the furniture, and the elegant lighting of the bar shelves following the glass façade enhance the quality and light balance of the venue.
Scalla stands out as a contemporary restaurant offering guests a rich sensory experience, both visually and aurally.
