Nestled within the historic center of Monastiraki, Minu Athens is a concept store and dining space that offers visitors a rich fusion of history, design, and greenery. Housed inside an old neoclassical building, “the space’s design is a blend of volumes with sharp materialities, dynamically introduced to a rough cell”, as the Hyle Design Studio team mentions. Inside, plants, furnishings, and architecture meld creating a space where each corner has its own distinct character. The inviting facade, painted in soft, pale colors, welcomes guests into an urban oasis. One of the defining features of Minu Athens is its roof, punctuated with openings that flood the interior with natural light, embracing the verticality of the space. The heart of the space is the long bar, serving as a centerpiece that encourages interaction. It guides visitors through the inner rooms, revealing a curated collection of design elements and art pieces. Indoor house plants thrive alongside uber-chic design objects, creating an atmosphere where every detail is designed to inspire.
