Raw materials and exposed joists surround walls, complementing white menu boards. The shop’s colors are the skylight to wash the space with natural light.
The inspiration for the contrast of materials, on the exterior and interior, was to break the heavy pedestrian street elevation with an inset patio.
The wooden geometrical entry is carved out from the black monolithic stucco massing, complementing the elevation.
Inside, the geometrical wall paneling is backlit with warm led lights that perimeter shelving merchandise and flanked wall treatment.
Patrons have suggested the paneling having acoustical properties that subdue the outside noise.
