Jim Lim

Jim Lim’s space blends Southeast Asian warmth with the rugged charm of its old industrial past in Telakkaranta. Exposed brick walls and steel accents nod to the building’s former life, while dark red hues and wooden seating soften the atmosphere, creating a balance between the industrial and the inviting. Soft lighting highlights the raw textures of the space, casting a warm glow over the room and enhancing its communal, laid-back vibe. The fusion industrial elements with contemporary design makes the setting both nostalgic and vibrant.
