The restaurant is located on the 10th floor of the Historic Hotel Palace in Eteläranta and the entire decor was also inspired by the hotels’ mid-century features and designs.
The Hotel Palace opened in 1952 to coincide with the Helsinki Summer Olympics. Designed by Finnish architects Viljo Revell and Keijo Petäja, it features a form that resembles an ocean liner topped with distinctive neon yellow signage. The Palace restaurant was originally located opposite the hotel, and in 1987 it became the first Finnish restaurant to be awarded a Michelin star.
The designers were careful to include plenty of references to the original 1950s interiors, such as the teak paneling, blue carpet, white tablecloths and custom-designed drinks trolleys.
“We imagined, not what Palace could be, but what it should be,” said the studio. “For us, the space should not only convey a sense and respect for tradition, and highlight the local atmosphere, but also be expressive on its own.”

MID-CENTURY BRAND: ESSENTIAL HOME
Essential Home is an innovative mid-century modern furniture brand that takes important historical and cinematographic references from the 1930s and 1960s and turns them into unique furnishing pieces. What started out as ‘Essentials’ in 2015, a furniture collection by the mid-century lighting brand DelightFull, quickly grew to be one of the most elegant representations of mid-century modern design, thus creating a new name, and a new brand, Essential Home.
