At Leones Gelato in Lange Gasse the main focus was put on the concrete counter: A light-grey, monolithic block, carefully cast with several different techniques by the sculptor Stefan Buxbaum, which makes for a real eye-catcher. Contrasting to this are the light, delicate lamps: Their design seizes on the so called Pozzetti – Characteristically curved silver shiny lids, keeping the daily locally produced ice cream fresh and flavourful.
Modular wooden cubes are used as stools or small tables and can be combined freely, possible to adapt to the required spatial set-up or even be completely stowed away under the wooden bench.
