An enticing canyoning landscape is generated through undulating striations of seating, layered wall and bar, utilizing the generous 19” height capacity to produce a telescopic effect in depth.
The horizontal layers are peeled from one another, creating variation in patterning, cantilevering and velocity. This effect forms a visible invitation to the space, drawing the visitor in, and gradually frames multiple spatial readings, keeping the guest inside.
The canyon wall is embedded with a lighting effect which reveals a random pixelated pattern once one has journeyed inside the restaurant and looks back out from the interior of the restaurant.
In order to create a dense and consistent atmospheric intensity, GRAFT chose quarter-figured African mahogany wood paneling for the layered canyon, giving both warmth to the space and translating the canyon feel into a contemporary formal solution.
