A new restaurant is inserted into a recently completed shell space. In collaboration with Bentel & Bentel, the restaurant design takes its cues from the ideas that direct the chef's (Tom Colicchio's) development of the menu - insuring that well selected ingredients (materials) carefully combined (as details) make for a perfect dining experience.

Craft Restaurant won the 2008 California Home + Design Achievement Award for Commercial Design.
