LENTO: Contemporary Italian Deli & Wine Bar Interior Design in Ibiza

LENTO is a contemporary Italian deli and wine bar in Ibiza designed by Studio Rethink Ibiza. Conceived as a compact retail environment with a strong visual identity, the project brings together bespoke joinery, carefully selected finishes, and integrated lighting to create a welcoming space where functionality and design are equally important.

Project Information

Design Concept

LENTO was conceived as a contemporary Italian deli and wine bar where architecture, materiality, and lighting work together to shape a memorable customer experience. Every decision was driven by the ambition to express a distinctive identity while making the most of the available space.

The palette combines RAL 6007 Bottle Green, RAL 1024 Ochre Yellow, and RAL 7044 Silk Grey. Bottle Green provides a refined backdrop, while Ochre Yellow introduces rhythm and highlights key architectural elements and bespoke furniture. Silk Grey softens the composition, allowing each colour to complement the others without overwhelming the interior.

European Oak (Quercus robur) was selected for shelving, worktops, and bespoke detailing. Its natural grain introduces warmth and texture, balancing the clean lines of the steel elements and reinforcing the tactile quality of the space.

Architectural Features

A defining element of the interior is the expanded stretch metal grid, incorporated into both the storefront and the suspended bottle display. Its lightweight structure provides transparency while preserving visual depth, allowing light to move freely throughout the space and reinforcing the project’s contemporary industrial character.

Custom display niches, illuminated with integrated *3000 K warm-white LED lighting*, present wines and gourmet products as architectural features rather than conventional retail shelving.

The refrigerated display counter, finished in European Oak and Bottle Green, acts as the focal point of the interior, combining practical requirements with a clean and carefully detailed appearance.

Bespoke Joinery

Every furniture element was designed specifically for the project to improve circulation, organise product presentation, and support the daily operation of the store.

Matte black powder-coated steel, restrained detailing, and carefully proportioned volumes create a timeless environment where furniture, displays, and architectural elements form a coherent whole rather than separate components.

Lighting Design

Lighting is treated as an integral architectural element rather than a finishing layer. The integrated *3000 K warm-white LED* system enhances the texture of the oak, emphasises the contrast between the colour palette, and creates a comfortable atmosphere suited to both daytime retail and evening service.

Bespoke Furniture

Project Description - Bespoke Furniture

The Plùstic Lab project is a prime example of how design and sustainability can coexist. We developed a custom-made mobile station bar created with recycled plastic boxes. We embraced circular design principles to construct this product from waste materials. In our sustainability lab, we strive to make the most out of polymers and transform plastic residues into design pieces.

Project Challenges

Plastic pollution is one of the biggest challenges of our modern era. We wanted to do our part in mitigating this issue by creating a product that was not unique and colorful but also respectful of the environment. Our challenge was to develop a design employing as much recycled plastic as possible, resulting in a product that used over 20kg of recycled plastic.

The result was a folding metal structure covered in recycled plastic, made to be transported to various events as a cocktail bar. Our circular design approach and recycled plastic ensured the product was functional and sustainable. It was also visually appealing and colorful, drawing the attention of event-goers. We were proud to have successfully demonstrated how design and sustainability can work together to create beautiful and functional products.

Youth Forum

The Recycled Option is a project to refurbish old furniture and create modern designs from scrap materials or broken stuff. The project was organized by the local Common House with the coordination of the “Youth Forum.” This social project aims to integrate immigrants and refugees into the upcycling process and a circular economy. The idea behind Recycled Option is to create new pieces of furniture from old, discarded ones and reduce waste.

Project Challenges:
This project’s biggest challenge was involving people unfamiliar with the upcycling process and teaching them how to create new pieces of furniture from old, discarded ones. The project team had to devise easy-to-follow instructions and find ways to make the process accessible to everyone. Despite language and cultural barriers, they also had to find ways to integrate immigrants and refugees into the project.

Location: Ibiza, Spain Date: Ongoing since 2018 Collaborators: The local Common House, Youth Forum, and various volunteers.

Project Description: Private Residential

Creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere in one’s home is a priority. At Studio Rethink Ibiza, we developed custom-made wooden furniture for a private Residential client, ensuring each piece was unique and created with the best local wood. Slow design processes enabled us to focus on the materials and their sustainability.

Project Challenges

Crafting unique pieces of furniture requires a certain level of skill and attention to detail. We utilized slow design processes to ensure each piece was carefully crafted to meet the client’s specific requirements. The bar counter was made from scrap wood, with a chestnut top, while the living room table was made from mixed local wood and metal. We used a metal frame and a chestnut top for the kitchen structure.

Project Description: Retail Shop

Studio Rethink Ibiza was tasked with creating an industrial-style interior design for a Retail fashion shop that would enhance the brand’s image and provide a unique shopping experience. Our team developed custom-made modular elements, bespoke furniture, and unique interior design pieces using ribbed iron, typically used for construction.

Project Challenges

One of the main challenges we faced was combining industrial elements with geometric shapes and minimalist style while also integrating the Capri style. We resolved this by creating two main areas in the shop, each with a distinctive design.
Solution:
In the first area, we combined cement and bricks to combine industrial and minimalist styles. This was complemented by the bespoke clothes displays made from ribbed iron, which provided a raw, edgy look that perfectly showcased the fashion items.
In the second area, we integrated industrial elements with blue tiles, ceramics, and plant decorations to revive the Capri style. The result was a harmonious blend of contemporary and traditional designs with a touch of the Mediterranean.

Project Description: Restaurant Design

Studio Rethink Ibiza was tasked with designing a Speakeasy Style Cocktail Bar & Restaurant in Italy. The concept aimed to recreate the hidden bars of the 1920s prohibition era, with a retro feel that would transport clients to a bygone era.

The design featured a combination of classic furniture, metals, woods, and marbles, immersed in a blue-colored atmosphere. The aim was to create a timeless space where clients could be the protagonists alongside their drinks.

Project Challenges

One main challenge was creating a space that would stand the test of time. The design needed to be elegant and functional, focusing on the bar counter where the materials became one with the bottles, completing the design.
Another challenge was to create an ambiance that enhanced the client’s experience. This was achieved through careful lighting design that highlighted key features of the space and added to the overall atmosphere.

Project Description

“El Local” is a restaurant designed by Studio Rethink Ibiza to create a warm atmosphere that welcomes clients into its environment. The goal was to create a cozy, unique, and relaxed space, especially in Ibiza.
The design team crafted custom-made furniture by handcrafting wood and metal, which fused industrial and modern styles. The warm lighting design by Plumeen sweetened the overall ambiance. A custom bar counter was made out of scrap wood recovered from local carpenters, while shelves, tables, and stools were made out of Iron solid wood. The plant decoration added a touch of wildness to the space, completing the overall design.

Project Challenges

One of the main challenges faced by Studio Rethink Ibiza was sourcing sustainable materials. The team had to ensure that the materials fit the restaurant’s aesthetic while being environmentally friendly. They worked with local carpenters to recover scrap wood for the bar counter and utilized Iroko solid wood for the shelves, tables, and stools.
Another challenge was designing a functional space that was also aesthetically pleasing. The team had to ensure that the restaurant could accommodate the needs of the kitchen staff while providing a comfortable and enjoyable dining experience for clients.

Project Management & Design: Gianpaolo Passaretti

The project was managed and designed by Gianpaolo Passaretti, who brought his expertise in design and project management to create a space that exceeded the client’s expectations. The result was a speakeasy-style cocktail bar that successfully recreated the feeling of a bygone era while providing a modern and functional space for clients to enjoy their drinks.
