Salon Heritage & Design

Art Deco Montreal, Reimagined in Warm Linen & Brass

Melzari’s gaming salon is inspired by the city’s Art Deco and Imperial heritage, realized through bespoke craftsmanship and a palette of burgundy, brass, and alabaster.

Custom burgundy velvet chairs, hand-finished brass fixtures, and tailored millwork lines give the salon a distinctive architectural rhythm. Every surface is chosen to soften sound and invite lingering conversation.

The layout balances vantage points over roulette, blackjack, and poker tables with intimate seating clusters, allowing the salon to feel spacious yet contained. Soft linen tones on the walls echo the restaurant’s main dining room, creating a seamless journey between culinary and gaming spaces.
