DESIGN PROJECT:: CASUAL OFFICE STYLE WITH AN INDUSTRIAL FLAIR

THE HOTH: TO "HITTEM OVER THE HEAD" (WITH AWESOMENESS)

We are very excited and humbled to be nominated by the Tampa Bay Business Journal for "2018 Coolest Office Spaces!" We were lucky enough to be nominated for two projects within this category. No matter  the outcome we are honored to get the opportunity to work with great people who love our passion for design, and trust us to make their space a direct reflection of their brand and work culture.

The Hoth, is an expert SEO  company located in the heart of Downtown St. Pete. With out of this world views overlooking the bay, and a red hairy monster as their mascot- we needed to simplify the design but  make it significant. Using a combination of subtle tones, metal, wood, brick and one kick-ass graffiti wall covering spanning the hallway, this space certainly energizes this team everyday!

DESIGN CHAT: FABRICA PIZZA

It's been a few months since we finished Fabrica Woodfired Pizza, and I have to be honest, I still love it just as much as the day we started! There is something fantastic about the clean open environment, combined with the fresh ingredients, I just can't get enough!

So I decided to talk about a few of my favorite Fabrica things:

  • Recycled materials. The table tops are derived from old churches around the United States, no trees suffered while creating a spot for you to eat!

Ohio is where these table tops once called home. 

  • This glorious woodfired pizza oven. All 7,000lbs of it. No, that wasn't a typo. At one point, we considered covering the facade in small gold tiles (you know, I love to put gold on anything.) However, honestly, I do believe leaving it in it's natural state was the best choice. The stark white looks so lovely and clean. This oven stands very proud. (And, us too!)
  • Open environment. This space is seriously wonderful. It's open, airy and not over stuffed with too many tables. You don't feel on top of your neighbor, which is really great. I hate it when restaurants shove you next to the bathrooms or the kitchen door. There is plenty of breathing room here.
  • Amazing Italian photography. So, the owners of Fabrica Woodfired Pizza are pretty great. The goal was for Fabrica to have an authentic Italian vibe, so they purchased original photography from a very talented Italian photographer. We got to have fun with it and turn it into wallpaper, creating a beautiful focal wall in the space. I love this image so much.
  • One word, tufting. I mean, really, can there ever be too much tufting in the world? Well, yeah, there can. However, in this case, it's the perfect amount of tufting and it looks fabulous on the camel faux leather. 
  • Pizza. Pizza. Pizza. Amazing, delicious, mouth-watering, pizza.

So there you have it, a few of our favorite Fabrica things! Have you been yet? If so, tell us your favorites below!

INSPIRATION: Restaurant Design // Industrial

We absolutely love designing restaurants here at Lisa Gilmore Design! One thing that we are noticing that is really trending in the restaurant industry is industrial design. Restaurant owners (and patrons) are loving the laid back vibe that industrial design creates. -- However, don't be confused, a laid back industrial vibe does not mean thoughtfully planned interior design is tossed to the wayside. A combination of brick, moody colors, railroad ties and interesting lighting make all of these spaces unique in their own way.

Here are some of our favorite images from this popular aesthetic...

We are currently working on a design for a new restaurant in Channelside. Here are some images from our instagram of layouts and materials selections.

So what do you think about the chill vibe of industrial design? Do you enjoy dining in this atmosphere or do you prefer a more tailored look? What are some of your favorite industrial designed spaces? Don't keep them a secret, do tell!
