A dynamic, stepped wood soffit moves through space to lead the traveler from the entry to the main dining area. Exhibition cooking, exposed to the busy Terminal 4 concourse, lends theatricality to the traveling and dining experience while heavy stone walls frame views from the concourse through the dining space to the runway. Tension is created between static, monolithic stone floors, walls, and counters and the light, dynamic wood soffit while walnut, glazed Japanese penny tile and Turkish seagrass limestone resonate with the texture and earthiness of the brand’s Mediterranean menu.
