Bar Saint Jean
7-6-2013
Johann opened the ‘Saint Jean’ bar in the center of Berlin in January. The bar is mainly focused on long drinks with the not so usual gin or vodka and a broad selection of whiskeys and tequilas. Saint Jean has a robust, neutral look without too many details. The bar is made of wooden planks this gives it a tough look. Great inspiration to make a bar out of waste wood or an old wooden floor.

The ‘Mobile Orchard’ is a tree that consists of multiple layers of wood and the roots and branches offer sitting space and climbing adventure.
