Sotto - Enoteca & Trattoria
Metal Framed Lanterns | Borderless Projecting Lightbox | Menu Displays
Stockbridge, Edinburgh
Sotto brings together the perfect blend of modern design with a refined yet welcoming atmosphere, balancing high-end sophistication with the warmth of traditional Italian home cooking. This carefully crafted environment sets the stage for an elevated yet relaxed dining experience in the heart of Stockbridge.
The exterior of Sotto has been beautifully designed to make a striking first impression. A sleek, borderless projecting lightbox, along with two custom metal-framed lanterns flanking the entrance, subtly showcases the Sotto name. These lanterns feature fluted opal faces, softly diffusing light and creating an inviting glow. Additionally, matching metal-framed menu displays are strategically positioned at the second entrance, ensuring that every detail aligns with the overall design aesthetic.
Inside, the warm and inviting atmosphere is accentuated by bespoke lighting and elegant décor. A third lantern, perfectly coordinated with the exterior elements, is placed at the base of the stairs, guiding guests towards the wine cellar, Cantina, where they can explore a curated selection of wines in a sophisticated setting.
It has been an exciting journey to collaborate with James and an exceptional team of creatives on a project that truly embodies high-end design while maintaining a relaxed, inviting feel.
Sotto promises to be a fantastic addition to Stockbridge, offering a unique Italian dining experience paired with a diverse selection of fine wines. Be sure to visit and immerse yourself in the welcoming atmosphere.
