A new branch of the Wholesome Table is their venture to an area farther from the comfort zone. Compared to the faster paced crowd of the previous ones, this new location had a more relaxed pace to it. To push the envelope further, this is located in a stand-alone part of the mall complex, with a 5-meter high ceiling.
The space had its own characteristics that helped direct our design. The huge ceiling and open windows are unlike what we previously encountered, and so we were able to introduce new elements.
Working with Craftsmith Guild, we conceptualized this space to be a barn with huge trusses that run the whole span of the room. Still staying true to the brand’s DNA and introducing a bold move, we were able to (quite literally) expand how people experienced this restaurant.
