Anaviv's Table

In collaboration with my friend and local artist, Kirsten Piroth, whose art adorns these walls, we helped this professional chef transform his office-like fine dining space into a warm, cozy and intimate space for hosting private events and food tastings.  Despite the limited natural light in this boxy commercial-like space, we embraced the darkness and leaned into a rich, moody palette to create a cozy, cocoon-like atmosphere.  Rather than fighting the constraints, we used deep tones, rich wood and warm lighting to transform the space into an intimate retreat.  The result is a private, enveloping environment that feels intentional and inviting - proof that even in less-than-ideal conditions, thoughtful design can turn a challenge into a strength.
