VW Autostadt, Wolfsburg

Graven worked in collaboration with Volkswagen to redesign Lagune, the 500 seat restaurant at their VW Autostadt, Wolfsburg theme park.

Lagune occupies the ground floor in a complex but architecturally powerful space. Our objectives in the refurbishment were to help make a great restaurant, but also to bring out the best in the original architecture by organising the space. We did this by removing some of the ‘clutter’ and through the use of large scale graphic panels.

Communication is important to us, and we have used photography and typography as part of a palette of textures and materials that include natural stones, ceramics and wood. The result is a graphic and communicative space in which we hope visitors can best enjoy the wonderful fresh, healthy food!
