Interior Design that fits You.
Upscale's design guide
Located on a vibrant street in Zurich, Café Maxmo reinterprets classical café interior design through a contemporary interior architecture approach. The interior space is structured around a central marble bar, acting as both a functional anchor and a sculptural focal point within the overall design.
The checkered flooring introduces a strong geometric identity, referencing traditional café design while aligning with Zurich’s modern design culture. Suspended glass racks add vertical articulation, and the interior furnishment is arranged around the bar to reinforce spatial hierarchy.
Café Maxmo reflects how interior design in Zurich evolves by reworking familiar typologies into precise, contemporary interior spaces.
What caught our eye
We value how this Zurich interior design translates classic café elements into a clear and contemporary interior architecture, creating a strong and memorable space.
Located on Europaallee, one of the most vibrant and architecturally evolving streets in Zurich, Café Europa positions itself within the city’s contemporary café and interior design landscape. The interior architecture reflects this urban context through a precise and restrained material approach. Continuous wood paneling wraps the interior space, creating a unified architectural envelope that emphasises calmness, proportion, and clarity — qualities that define much of
Zurich’s current interior design language.
The interior furnishment is seamlessly integrated into this architectural framework. Perimeter seating becomes part of the spatial structure, while carefully positioned tables maintain openness toward the lively Europaallee in Zurich. The relationship between interior space and street is subtle yet present, allowing the rhythm of the city to filter into the café without disrupting its calm atmosphere. Warm, indirect lighting reinforces the tactile quality of the wood and enhances the sense of spatial coherence.
This restrained interior design aligns closely with the café’s identity and with Zurich’s contemporary coffee culture, where focus lies on quality, precision, and experience. Rather than competing with the product, the interior architecture frames it, creating a composed and intentional environment. On Europaallee in Zurich, Café Ezropa becomes a clear example of how interior design can translate urban context into a refined spatial experience.
What caught our eye
We appreciate how this Zurich interior design on Europaallee achieves a strong architectural presence through reduction, allowing materiality, proportion, and spatial clarity to define the experience.
Located on a vibrant street in Zurich, Brera brings a distinctly Italian spatial identity into the context of contemporary Zurich interior design. Named after the Brera district in Milan, the restaurant translates this cultural reference not through literal decoration, but through atmosphere, proportion, and material expression. The interior architecture reflects a balance between urban elegance and relaxed hospitality, positioning itself within Zurich’s refined dining scene.
The interior space is structured around a strong central bar, often executed in marble, which acts as both a visual anchor and a social focal point. Around it, the interior furnishment is arranged in a way that encourages movement and interaction, echoing the dynamic rhythm of Italian dining culture. Warm tones, soft lighting, and carefully selected materials such as wood, stone, and textile create a layered interior design that feels both intimate and open toward the surrounding Zurich street.
What defines Brera’s interior design is its ability to translate Italian conviviality into a precise architectural language. Rather than relying on nostalgia, the design focuses on proportion, materiality, and atmosphere values that resonate strongly within contemporary interior architecture in Zurich. The result is a space that feels urban, elegant, and socially vibrant, aligning closely with the experience of Italian cuisine.
What caught our eye
We appreciate how this Zurich interior design captures the essence of Italian dining culture through spatial composition and material warmth, creating an interior space that feels both refined and effortlessly social.
Located on Brauerstrasse 58 in Zurich, in the Lukashof building on a vibrant street in Zurich, Miro Coffee positions itself clearly within the city’s contemporary coffee culture and interior design landscape. The brand describes itself as a specialty coffee roastery in Zurich, and this identity is legible in the interior architecture from the first moment: the space reads as precise, functional, and process-oriented rather than decorative. Since 2018, this Zurich location has served as Miro’s first café and store as well as the relocated roastery, which gives the interior space a strong connection to production, craft, and daily use.
The interior design of Miro Coffee in Zurich is shaped by an industrial yet controlled architectural language. Exposed ceilings, visible technical elements, clean lines, and a reduced material palette give the interior space a raw and honest character, while the overall composition remains architecturally disciplined. Miro itself refers to the space as having an architecturally minimalist interior, and that description is fitting: the interior furnishment is restrained, functional, and carefully placed, allowing circulation, counter operations, and the preparation of coffee to remain central to the spatial experience. Greenery softens the harder edges of the architecture and introduces warmth without weakening the clarity of the design.
What makes this Zurich interior design especially convincing is the way it mirrors the logic of specialty coffee itself. Specialty coffee is about origin, precision, roasting, brewing, and technical control, and the interior architecture expresses exactly that mindset. Rather than using design as a backdrop, Miro turns process into atmosphere: the rawness of the space communicates transparency, while the minimalist interior design creates focus. On a vibrant street in Zurich, this makes Miro more than a café; it becomes an interior space where craftsmanship, interior architecture, and coffee culture are staged as one coherent design identity.
What caught our eye
We appreciate how this Zurich interior design translates the values of specialty coffee into interior architecture with unusual clarity. The balance between industrial rawness, minimalist interior design, and a highly functional interior space gives Miro Coffee a strong and memorable spatial identity. Based on Miro’s own positioning as a roastery, café, and flagship location in Zurich, the design feels conceptually consistent rather than stylistically applied.
Located on a vibrant street in Zurich, Restaurant Barranco introduces a more expressive and socially driven approach to interior design. The interior architecture is deliberately open, with the kitchen integrated into the dining space, dissolving the boundary between preparation and experience. This spatial openness reflects a broader evolution in Zurich’s restaurant design toward interaction and informality.
Barranco’s identity as a Peruvian-inspired restaurant is subtly translated into the interior space. Rather than relying on literal references, the design communicates this influence through atmosphere a sense of energy, movement, and layering. Light materials, textured surfaces, and artistic wall interventions create a vibrant yet controlled environment that mirrors the richness and diversity of Peruvian cuisine.
The interior furnishment remains flexible and understated, allowing the focus to shift toward people, food, and interaction. This balance between structure and spontaneity defines the space. In Zurich’s interior design landscape, Barranco stands out as a project that understands how interior architecture can support a culinary narrative without becoming thematic.
What caught our eyeWe appreciate how this Zurich interior design translates the vibrancy of Peruvian cuisine into spatial experience, creating an interior space that feels dynamic, social, and authentic without relying on clichés.

What our happy clients say about us!
Upscale was fantastic!
They are collaborative, helpful, knowledgeable and helped me bring my dream apartment to life. The designer I worked with took my feedback and worked with me to get the design to be exactly what I pictured in my head. It was a long process but entirely worth it bc the end result was better than I could have hoped for. The team was responsive and attentive.
Thank you Upscale for the outstanding work
We were super lucky in finding Upscale interiors. Ewelina was our designer and the care she took during the entire project was what we were looking for precisely. She took her time to understand us as persons, our style, preferences and the designs we have had in mind.
Looking forward to working again with Upscale
I had Upscale redecorate my apartment. Super service, very personal, uncomplicated and professional, personal wishes and preferences were individually addressed. The result is really great. I would recommend Upscale anytime.
Working with UPSCALE was so outgoing and fun.
Working with people from UPSCALE was so outgoing and fun. The thing that attracted me most at the first place was their online-first approach. Despite online communication, the approach is extremely personal. They completely understand the needs and ideas when it comes to interior design. Often one could not decide about details for room or entire apartment decoration.
I heartily recommend UPSCALE.
I found Carina to be wonderful to work with. Firstly, she really knows her stuff and her advice is very sound. She works with high-end products and material, which produce a lush interior. She also listens when you have an idea and she respected my taste completely. When we went wrong on two occasions, she just took the items away which I found very customer-centric.
Looking forward to working again with Upscale
