The food area, called Spotkania I Dania, can seat up to 1,500 people and is divided into three zones. It features 36 food outlets, a selection of vintage food trucks, a co-working space and connections to a cinema and dance school on the same floor.

The design of the food area is inspired by two distinct yet complementary influences: Bielany, a Warsaw district characterised by its green spaces and historical role as a hub for leisure, picnics, and festivals since the 17th century, and Huta Warszawa, an industrial district that has been emblematic of the steel industry since the post-World War II era. These elements inform the spatial organisation and materiality, creating a dynamic contrast between nature and industry.

The second zone, Dechy na Bielanach, creates a more homely and informal atmosphere, catering to a younger, leisure-focused crowd with neon lights and graffiti by Polish and Portuguese artists. Within this zone, we have designed an unusual seating arrangement inspired by games like Minecraft, allowing diners to freely choose their own relaxed spot to eat.

This central zone also features a wine bar and two gastronomy units that face both inward and outward, with views of the external area. The outdoor space has been divided into a garden zone, home to more than 1,500 shrubs and trees, and a hard-landscaped terrace. This versatile area serves as a meeting space during the day and hosts events and concerts in the evening, along with a children’s playground.
