Peridot

 
 

Peridot

This 2,260 sf, 104-seat venue plays up refined industrial features across two levels with multiple placemaking bars.

This space dates back to the late 1800’s when it was originally a harness shop. Soon after, it was a flour and feed shop. In 1969 and from then on, its uses involved entertainment, music, food, and gatherings. 

Respectfully acknowledging the history of this building while also modernizing to current standards, the first and second floor plans accommodate dining areas and bars.

Bespoke finishes and fixtures combine with enduring materials contributing to the bar’s timeless vibe.

Whiskey Row Las Vegas

 
 

Whiskey Row Las Vegas


Whiskey Row is a full-service restaurant and performance venue delivered within a gastropub concept. The country-style theme drives the design resulting in the incorporation of an aged, raw material look and feel. Ivy ceilings, retractable glass walls, reclaimed wood, raw steel, and clearstories reinforce the weathered, country style with a modern, open plan.

The first and second floors feature multiple bars, raised and lounge-style seating, dance floors, and a live performance stage. The interior/exterior transition is articulated with operable walls and outdoor patios and terraces. The outdoor spaces help to generate activity and excitement along The Park. With its raw materials, open feel, and mass structural pieces, the design relates back to the natural features of The Park and becomes an exciting, active venue within it.

The Attic

 
 

The Attic

The Attic, a nightclub and event venue located on the second floor of the River North hotspot, American Junkie, is housed in an industrial-chic space that features a retractable roof and street front facade that opens onto Illinois Street.

Modern details pay tribute to the epitome of the 'American experience' by combining rugged accents with sophisticated finishes and culminating in a back-lit wall emblazoned with the American flag that plays the role of the nightclub's backdrop.

A retractable skylight infuses the nightclub with light and fresh air. The skylight enhances the guest experience affording breathtaking views of the Chicago skyline.

Multiple, full-service bars define the layout; a circular bar was designed to allow for maximum elbow room during shows on the club's raised platform stage. The 140,000 mw sound system, combined with stylish furnishings and lighting systems, evokes an energy and ambiance conducive to the entertainment goals our client desired.

American Junkie

 
 

American Junkie

Located in Chicago’s River North area, American Junkie is over 12,000 square feet of excitement sprawling over two levels. The 320-seat restaurant pays tribute to the epitome of the ‘American experience’ by combining rugged details with classic moments.

As an infill project, bringing natural light into the main spaces was our biggest challenge. This was accomplished through the use of overhead doors off the main dining space.

American Junkie’s seating layout is a combination of banquets along the perimeter and open dining that can shift to cater to the masses. Multiple full service bars define the layout; on the first floor, it is used to spatially break up the dining layout of the restaurant.
