A dining experience in motion

ATMosfera transforms a classic Milan tram into an exclusive restaurant on rails, offering a journey through flavours and unique views of the city.

ATMosfera is a project that combines tradition and innovation, transforming two of Milan's historic trams into moving restaurants. The interior design was crafted to offer an exclusive, intimate experience, preserving the historic charm of the original vehicle while integrating it with contemporary solutions.

The fit-out required careful reworking of the spaces, ensuring maximum comfort without compromising the tram's authenticity. The seating was arranged to foster an intimate, elegant atmosphere, with well-spaced tables and fine materials. Lighting [1] plays a key role, creating a warm, refined environment, perfect for a romantic dinner or a special event.

The onboard kitchen is a central element of the project: the interior layout [2] was optimised to allow the preparation of gourmet dishes in a small space, while ensuring efficient service. The combination of design, functionality and the visual experience offered by the tour through Milan makes ATMosfera an icon of mobile dining and experiential tourism.
