About Eataly Interior Design
Eataly Toronto is tailored to the nuances of our growing city and is designed to enhance and augment social exchanges via the universal catalyst of great Italian food. It is only fitting that the traditional and enduring “passeggiata” is the inspiration behind the design for Eataly Toronto. This timeless ritual sees Italians each evening take to the main street and piazza, to stroll and socialize and occasionally stop at bars and shops along the way. This series of experiences calls for a new, intimate street scale at Bloor and Bay.
Award Record
With this recognition, Lukas Magier - Giannone Petricone is a winner of 3 A' Design Awards. The awards were granted in the 2019 - 2020 edition of the A' Design Award & Competition.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- Eataly Toronto is tailored to nuances of our growing city and is designed to enhance and augment social connection via universal catalyst of great Italian food. It is only fitting the traditional and enduring passeggiata is the inspiration behind the design for Eataly Toronto. This timeless ritual sees Italians each evening take to the main street and piazza, to stroll and socialize and occasionally stop at bars and shops along the way. This series of experiences requires a new street scale at Bloor and Bay.
- Inspiration
- The inspiration was to enhance social exchanges via the catalyst of remarkable Italian cuisine. In Italy, the traditional passeggiata refers to Italians getting together the main streets and main piazza town square in the evening. This atmosphere is brought to life in the centre of downtown Toronto through Eataly.

- Operation and Interaction
- While most Eataly’s are centred around one main piazza, the Toronto location is designed around two – one the loggia and the other by the ovens. A monumental bar resonant of the traditional Italian town and its main loggia with over-head lights and carved wood marks the traditional piazza. The second piazza is more urban with twin, large wood-burning ovens. The gold mosaic encrusted ovens become orienting landmarks along the eventful passeggiata, punctuated by strings of market fair shelving, glass vitrines, and reach-in coolers filled with dry and fresh goods.
- Project Duration and Location
- This project began December 2018 and was completed November 2019 in Toronto.
