In Austin, Texas, Chioco Design 
converts a former food storage warehouse into a retro-inflected pizzeria
By
Chioco Design, Austin-based architecture firm formed by principal Jamie Chioco, transformed a former food storage warehouse into a new pizza place in the city. Bambino is a nearly nearly 3,000-square-feet counter-service pizzeria from restauranteur chef duo Adam Orman and Fiore Tedesco. Colorful, stained-glass windows and doors make for a retro introduction to both the restaurant and its design concept: a reference to the chefs’ nostalgia for pizza parlors of yore—but with a sophisticated twist.
