Industrial Chic Dining Pods Pop up at Fabbrica Restaurant in The Netherlands

Can you imagine how fun it would be to climb a little ladder into one of these elevated eating pods at <a href="http://www.fabbrica-bergen.nl/">Fabbrica</a> restaurant in the Netherlands? This is not the first time that <a href="http://www.tjep.com/works/interiors/fabbrica-bergen">Tjep Studio</a> has decked out an eatery with elevated dining modules (there's a Fabbrica with a similar concept in Rotterdam as well), but this time, the Dutch studio has taken a more earthy approach to the design. In response to our stressed economic times, the designers say people want less bling, which is why they chose natural materials over painted surfaces for this awesome eating establishment in Bergen.

Tjep Studio is definitely moving in a closer-to-nature direction with their design

The fuel for the wood stove is kept in minimalist, industrial crates stacked openly against the wall

Daylighting pulses through arched windows

An emphasis has been placed on materials instead of bling

Timber flooring gives the entire establishment a more natural feeling

Tjep saves a lot of materials by leaving the electrical fixtures exposed
