ANGELINIbangkok, thailand

Both the challenge and opportunity in reinventingthis complex, multi-level, 7,800 square foot Italian

restaurant and bar located in the Shangri-La Hotelwas the requirement to respect elements of the existinginfrastructure as well as conserve where possible thescope of new construction.

As a symbolic reference to the old spirit of Angelini, thebasic bones of the existing architecture remain intactbut are reconceived in a bolder, modern expressionthat plays upon the contrast of light and dark, hard andsoft, old and new. A series of dramatic soaring newwindow boxes plug within the preserved architectural

columns to define a new expression for the importantriverside faade of the hotel. Within, against a creamand chocolate palette, illuminated amber toned onyxelements glow with warmth.

As part of the Hotels larger master plan, Angeliniis conceived of no longer as another fine-diningestablishment, but as a distinctly more casual, hip, andsophisticated yet accessible riverside venue.

ANTHOLOGYsan diego, california

Anthology is a modern supper club located in downtownSan Diego. The venue features Jazz, Blues, Soul and R&B

performers, with seating on multiple levels. The club alsofeatures small lounges, with the warm, casual eleganceinherent to Southern California. The legacy of jazz isframed here for the next generation. and is a uniquevenue, as dinner is served during the performance,allowing patrons to enjoy the simultaneous celebration offood and music.

The long and narrow site presented an unusual shape forviewing a performance. Rather than fight the proportions,they are accentuated for dramatic effect by compressing

the space and emphasizing its verticality, which createssightlines that allow people-watching as well as viewingthe performance. A dramatic sculptural concrete stairconnects the three open levels.

The interior design of the space blends wood, metal andstrings to make one feel like the room itself is an activeinstrument. Bleached woods, soft ivory leather, bluevelvet curtains, and shimmering metallic curtain reflectAnthologys unique location in a seaside city.
