Le Bistro

Transforming a decommissioned coffee bar into a French-inspired bistro, this multipurpose room brings an enduring warmth to a beloved gathering space. A pastoral backdrop frames a seating area that becomes a stage for live music, alongside built-in casework to house puzzles and games, a custom glass sculpture by a local glass artist, and a verdant color palette that carries the adjacent garden indoors.

Grand Lobby

Creating a welcoming entry with clear sightlines and an upscale aesthetic, the redesign centered on a new conversation zone that frames a reimagined chandelier, a modern take on an aging centerpiece. The chandelier’s crystal strands dazzle from six large descending rings, resulting in a stunning first impression.

Private Dining

A once dark, Gilded Age-inspired space, the renewed private dining area is bright and inviting with new chandeliers, walls adorned with botanicals and hummingbirds, and traditional wainscoting, and seating upholstered in rich textured velvet reminiscent of iridescent bird wings.
