Inspired by the feminine universe, Colinda exalts female freedom and power in every detail—from architecture designed by Elvira Lousadato the carefully crafted menu.

From the beginning, the creators’ goal was to transform Colinda in a meeting place for women – a place where they felt at home. “We wanted to create an environment where every woman could come in with her friends, have a good time and feel part of the space. The idea was for them to think, ‘This is my bar. I am in the idealized place for me. ‘”, says one of the partners. The focus on the female audience came from the desire to provide an environment where they felt special, welcomed and represented.

One of the biggest challenges was deeply understanding the preferences and needs of the female audience to create an environment that truly represents them. “From the choice of decor to the menu, everything had to be designed to meet their expectations. We wanted to avoid ‘more of the same’ and instead offer something innovative that celebrates the feminine energy in every detail.”

O Colinda stands out for being a space completely designed to honor the feminine universe like never before. “We incorporate the beauty, sophistication and good taste that only women have, bringing all of this to the ambiance of a bar. This uniqueness is reflected in the decoration, the menu focused on the female palate and the events we hold, all designed to provide a unique experience that celebrates and values ​​women in all aspects”emphasizes.

Partnership with the architect Elvira Lousada it was essential to create an environment that truly reflects the feminine universe. “We knew we couldn’t create a project aimed at women without the vision and talent of a professional who deeply understands this universe. We called Elvira to take care of the design of Colindachose the color palette, determined the sofas, created cozy spaces, thought about the furnishings, selected artwork and even designed an Instagrammable bathroom. Her participation was essential in designing a bar that truly reflected the feminine universe. We are very grateful for her work; The result was an absolute success.”

To harmonize with the proposal, the mycologist Mariana Buriti sign signature cocktails that pay homage to female characters from the award-winning series Sex and the CityHOW “Miranda” AND “Carrie”. “We wanted to complete our proposal with special drinks that resonate with the female audience. Each drink represents the personality of one of the characters: if the character is calmer and calmer, the drink is lighter and sweeter; if it is more intense and bolder. The drink reflects this energy. Feedback from customers has been fantastic, choosing drinks based on their favorite characters, making the experience a fun and engaging experience. welcome”. the comments.

Chef Jonathan conducted a gastronomic study to understand the preferences of this public. We did research to identify which types of foods, ingredients, seasonings and sauces would appeal to women the most. Based on this data, we created our food and snack menu. Today, you Colinda It has a menu focused on the female palate. Of course, there are options for all tastes, but most are designed to please women in particular, in line with the concept of the bar.”
