SERVICE
Wine Rooms & BarsThe back-bar carries the light: shelves lit from within, bottles doubled in a smoked mirror. The counter carries the weight: solid oak on a steel frame, topped with honed marble that will mark and be oiled back.
Brass was left unlacquered throughout. Two years on, the rail is dark where it is held and bright where it is not.
CLIENT
“It was installed between a Sunday and a Saturday. Nobody noticed we had closed.”
