The design was inspired by nature with a warm, modern vibe while respecting the historical bones of the building with the original Savannah brick and groove bead board ceilings.

A square tufted banquette runs the length of the dining room, with custom 38 PEACHYTHEMAGAZINE.COM tables and Italian dining chairs completing the seating. Upholstered velvet panels provide sound absorption, and customized sconces by Visual Comfort offer necessary lighting and ambiance.
