Project Showcase: "Onegin Dacha" Restaurant
Project Details
- Location: Central Rostov-on-Don, Russia

- Designer: Alexander Dorokhov
- Lead Decorators: Oleg Sitkovsky, Alexey Nazarov, and a team of master artisans
Design Concept & Challenge
The primary objective was to recreate the authentic atmosphere of a "noble manor," transporting guests back to the elegant, leisurely dacha lifestyle of a century ago. This unique establishment, meticulously styled as a historic estate, is designed to captivate visitors from the very first glance.
Materials & Specialized Techniques
To achieve this timeless aesthetic, the artisan team utilized a specialized "distressed" finishing system featuring "Vintage" Decorative Paint by "Krasiki Briz". This technique masterfully simulates an authentic "patina of time" on both wall surfaces and furniture pieces.
The complex, multi-step application process involves a precise sequence of materials:
- Deep-Penetration Primer: To ensure a stable, durable foundation.
- Crackle Varnish: Applied to generate authentic, fine aged cracks.
- Specially Prepared (Softened) "Vintage" Paint: Layered over the varnish to achieve a perfectly weathered, naturally aged appearance.
The Result
Thanks to this meticulous technique, the master decorators executed the architect's vision flawlessly. Today, the restaurant’s three signature halls—the "Winter Garden," the "Fireplace Room," and the "Library"—delight guests with warm hospitality and the enduring, sophisticated charm of Russian classical design.
