Place to Dine: Transitions

The concept behind this dining space was Transitions or Transitioning. I started with the table. It is a 20' wood table, with inlaid wood triangles and as you progress down the table to the buffet the triangles get bigger and push up from the table to create a buffet or place to serve food from. The chair I chose to put with this table is a modernized version of the Rietveld Z chair in a white leather with chrome legs. The room reflects the reactions of the triangles pushing out. The walls tilt in and out creating a dynamic space. Due to the tilting of the walls, the ceiling intersects itself and creates breaks to allow natural light in the room. The ceiling at its highest is 13'. There are hanging lights from the ceiling casting light only on the table. The East elevation depicts the ay window created by the tilted walls. The walls and ceiling are concrete substrate with sheet rock applied and finished with paint. The floor is polished concrete.
