Baia Nonna – The Barn

Baia Nonna at The Barn, designed by METAPHOR Interior Architecture, presents an enchanting blend of Peranakan heritage and contemporary comfort. The interior captures the vibrant essence of Peranakan culture through bold colors, intricate patterns, and traditional motifs, all harmonized within a modern aesthetic. Warm reds, lush greens, and earthy neutrals create an inviting atmosphere that celebrates the rich cultural tapestry.

Complementing the design, IKONS Furniture provides beautifully crafted pieces that enhance the Peranakan theme with intricate detailing and bold upholstery choices. Stained glass windows, patterned tiles, and rich wooden finishes add layers of texture, bringing a sense of nostalgia while maintaining a fresh, modern appeal. Whether dining in intimate booths or spacious communal tables, guests are immersed in a thoughtfully curated ambiance where tradition meets innovation.
