Restaurant/Bar Design

I designed and project managed this eclectic establishment from inception to launch. The owners wanted a fusion of British pub and a Barbadian rum shop vibe. I designed a back bar using old rum barrels and LED lights, a pair of matching chandeliers from 150 year old cart wheels and bespoke wrought iron fittings and finishes throughout. Decor and art was sourced through local antiques dealers with a view to create a unique ambiance. Three large backlit antique photos of Bridgetown in custom wrought iron frames add historic context to Barbadian rum culture and a warm glow to the dining rooms. Designing and furnishing, equipping the kitchens, bar, dining rooms and setting up supply chains for food and beverage, interviewing and hiring staff and launching the venue were all completed in 4 months. Rich managed the establishment through the start-up period and handed over a successful, popular and thriving establishment. Launch Gallery
