Welcome to Caffè Sacher Triest
Located in the lively pedestrian zone just a stone’s throw from the Corso Italia right in the centre of Trieste, the new Caffè Sacher Trieste opened its doors today! BWM architect Erich Bernard, proprietor Dizzi Alfons and interior stylist Peter Weisz (l to r) brought the famous Sachertorte to Trieste and saved the heritage building, where they put a lot of thought and care into integrating the new elements into the restored original furnishings from 1912.

By twisting the pedestal zone towards Schönbrunner Strasse, a special slant was created which allows interesting views of the room and opens up a view of the exterior space in front of it.Markus Kaplan

Gut möglich, dass wir das Buffet etwas zu früh abgeschrieben haben. Jetzt wäre eine gute Gelegenheit, das Ganze neu zu überdenken, man sollte überlegen, wie man den Frühstücksraum auch untertags und abends nutzt. Etwa indem man ihn mit der Bar beziehungsweise mit einer offenen Küche verbindet. Dadurch würde sich der gesamte Bereich beleben, aber auch ausdehnen und dieserart die Distanzierung zwischen den Gästen vereinfachen.Erich Bernard
