The design team of Serghii Makhno and Vasiliy Butenko have completed the interior for the Twister Restaurant, a restaurant in Kiev, where you can feel like baby bird while drinking cocktails or have a dinner at the top of a tornado. This restaurant can be classed as modern European and offers molecular kitchen style dishes. The main aim while designing the restaurant space was to create an environment that is natural, modern and comfortable. The Twister Restaurant features two areas: a two-story dining section and relaxing bar area.
The two-story dining section was inspired by two natural phenomenas: tornados and rain. The space features six tornado shaped balconies which create one dynamic upper zone with five dining cells. Restaurant walls lined with wooden slats create contrasting balconies with smooth surfaces. Ceiling lamps create the illusion of rain drops falling from the sky so the complete restaurant atmosphere is very natural and comfortable. Restaurant spaces are calming due to the natural tones which extend throughout the restaurant: beige, ochre, garnet, and brown.
The bar itself is made of wooden sticks stuck together. This wall decoration creates the feeling of a bird’s nest where you can feel warm and cosy. Armchair design reminds us of coniferous cones and forest. The whole place is made for relaxation and changing people’s mind to meditative spirit.
COMMENTARY: Absolutely fantastic. We have nothing remotely similar to Twister Restaurant in the U.S. The next time I visit Kiev, I will definitely drop by.

I love it, what a very unique setting. Everything is modern yet oddly appealing.
