Project Title: Keane’s Tavern
Concept Statement
This project reinterprets the traditional Irish pub through a lens of modern minimalism and industrial elegance. By stripping away the typical clutter of the genre, the design focuses on a sophisticated dialogue between heritage materials and clean, contemporary lines.
Design Highlights
Elevated Urban Facade: The exterior combines a bold charcoal-black storefront with refined gold accents and classical molding. Industrial-slatted awnings and expansive glazing bridge the gap between historic charm and modern transparency.
Material Contrast: The interior balances the “raw” and the “refined.” Exposed red brick and warm timber provide a grounded, tactile foundation, while fluted olive-green paneling and marble surfaces introduce a luxurious, mid-century modern aesthetic.
Atmospheric Lighting: Lighting is utilized as a structural element. Integrated LED contours and modular back-lighting create a warm, amber glow that complements the dramatic natural light play filtering through the storefront.
Functional Sophistication: The layout transitions seamlessly from a high-energy, geometric bar area to an intimate lounge, offering a versatile social environment that feels both spacious and private.
Project Title: Outdoor Patio Design
Concept Statement
A contemporary evolution of the Irish Pub, this project replaces traditional clutter with modern minimalism and industrial elegance. The design centers on a sophisticated dialogue between heritage textures—like exposed brick and timber—and sleek, geometric architectural elements.
Design Highlights
Monochromatic Facade: A bold, charcoal-black storefront with gold accents and industrial metal awnings, creating a high-contrast urban identity.
Modular Materiality: A tactile palette of olive-green fluted paneling, veined marble, and warm walnut joinery.
The Sculptural Bar: A geometric, back-lit shelving system that transforms the back-bar into a rhythmic architectural focal point.
Integrated Light: Hidden LED contours and large street-front windows create a seamless transition from a light-filled day café to a moody, amber-hued evening lounge.
Project Title: Stellar Auto Group
Concept Statement
Designed as a “gallery for mobility,” this project reimagines the traditional dealership into a dynamic retail experience. The architecture prioritizes transparency and minimalism, utilizing a sleek envelope of glass and steel to highlight the vehicles as kinetic sculpture while providing a luxurious, hospitality-driven environment for clients.
Design Highlights
Transparent Facade: A dramatic, double-height structural glass curtain wall dissolves the boundary between the street and the interior, maximizing curbside impact and natural light.
Studio Lighting: The main display floor features highly polished concrete and an integrated stretch-ceiling lighting system, creating a shadowless, high-gloss environment that accentuates automotive form.
The Client Lounge: A contrasting hospitality zone tucked on a mezzanine level, utilizing warm walnut wood slats and soft textures to offer a calm respite from the high-tech showroom floor.
Feature Vehicle Podiums: Elevated, rotating display platforms positioned at key sightlines, framed by brushed aluminum architectural fins.
