Chef-Owners, Karen and Quinn Hatfield had earned a Michelin
star in their tiny Beverly Blvd restaurant and were ready to expand into a new
location to showcase their fine dining.
They chose a 6000 sf formerly LA loved location of the 1980’s, but one
which had seen many restaurants fail over recent years.We wanted to create a conversation that referenced back to
the playful cooking for which the Hatfield’s had become known. The design is about the bounty of the
land. We built an 18’ steel and linen
honeycomb chandelier created of geometries that spell out the chemical formula
for honey. We lit plaster panels of
sugar, wheat and corn, ideologically loaded US crops.
