C O N C E P T - The Monkey’s Paw will be serving
traditional American food - This space will be dedicated
to a young and dynamic customer. profile This space
is made of two different areas -that I splitted into a bar
area at the main entrance, and a restaurant area on the
back. I wanted to give each space its own visual identity,
with very different designs, depending if you are having
a drink at the bar or having lunch at the restaurant.
The bar area will be offering a variety of seats- from
the design bar stools, a wooden banquette - to
more traditional velvet sofas and chairs. The design
will have the essence of a male and calm vibe: dark
color palette, wooden furniture, velvet sofas and chairs.
The restaurant area, on the contrary, has a more
refreshing and girly look. Pink asphalt walls- yellow
stools bar- big mirrors- a concept that will be in
opposition with the bar concept, but will be linked through
the same use of materials and furniture. (see below)

Those two areas will be unified through the floor,
lighting pendants and seats: a faux marble tile
floor and mosaic tiles floor unique to all the space;
bubble lighting on all ceilings and custom made
wooden seat box that can be found in both areas.
I N S P I R AT I O N The main thought when I
started the design of this restaurant and bar was born
from the idea of the wooden seat box - I love the idea
that the furniture is the main concept and that I could
play with it while designing two different atmospheres.
I find it challenging to create different concepts within
the same space- almost contradictory- but that can
still create consistency as a whole. Each design
could have been made for one space - I decided
to bring them together while playing on their contrats.
