In one area, red stone with veining that resembles marbled cuts of
meat forms a fireplace and a bar counter, while another features
walnut wall paneling, geometric black-and-white stone floors.
Blue-gray velvet upholstery covers the rounded backs of customized
curved banquettes, which are set into niches formed by walnut millwork
and stepped gray marble counters.
Let’s take a moment to
appreciate the Nuri Dining Chair. Developed specifically for this
project in close collaboration with AvroKO, the design comprises a
velvet-covered backrest that’s lifted slightly off the wooden frame on
brass finials, and a tone-matched leather seat cushion for added
comfort. The result was such a success that it also features in
AvroKO’s newly opened NYC gallery, Host on Howard. At Nuri, both the
banquettes and the chairs soften the interior’s bold geometry and
introduce a cool touch to the otherwise rich palette.
Distinctive
lighting also identifies the main dining space. Globe-shaped pendants
are suspended from central pillars on thin arching metal arms,
overlooking custom oval-shaped tables like futuristic robot heads.
Meanwhile, large illuminated elements with fluted glass and
gold-mirrored details provide an elegant old-world counterpoint.
There’s even a lampshade fashioned from the backplate of a tanker
truck in the bar area.
In another separate space, the
pale-green hues of the traditional celadon ceramics appear across a
series of tiered, cylindrical ceramic pendant lights and the reeded
front of the bar counter. There’s also a private dining room, which
can accommodate large parties, where the wall coverings depict birds
in flight against a gold-leaf sky, while the carpet is patterned with
watery blue-green hues. Brightliner Sloane Dining Chairs with
cushioned backrests strapped to their walnut frames are shaped to
gently embrace the sitter. Each of these distinct yet visually
cohesive spaces presents an experience for guests that’s a cut above
the rest.
在一个区域，纹理神似大理石纹肉质的红色石材构筑了壁炉与吧台；
另一区域则装饰着胡桃木墙板与几何造型的黑白石材地面。蓝灰色丝绒软包覆盖着定制弧形卡座的圆润靠背，
这些卡座嵌入由胡桃木装饰与阶梯状灰色大理石台面构成的壁龛之中。
值得一提的是 Nuri 餐椅。这款椅子是为此项目与 AvroKO
紧密协作特别设计的，其靠背覆盖丝绒，并通过黄铜顶饰略微抬高于木质框架，
座椅配有色调相配的皮革软垫以提升舒适度。该设计大获成功，也出现在 AvroKO
新近于纽约开设的 Host on Howard 画廊中。在 Nuri，无论是卡座还是餐椅，
都柔化了室内鲜明硬朗的几何线条，为原本浓郁的色彩体系增添了一抹冷静质感。
特色照明也界定了主用餐空间。球形吊灯通过纤细的弧形金属臂从中央立柱悬垂而下，
俯瞰着定制椭圆形餐桌，犹如未来的机器人头部。与此同时，大型发光构件配有凹槽玻璃与金色镜面细节，
提供了优雅的古典韵味对照。酒吧区甚至有一个由油罐车后挡板改造的灯罩。
在另一独立空间中，传统青瓷的淡绿色调呈现于一排层叠的圆柱形陶瓷吊灯及吧台前立面的凹槽纹路上。
餐厅还设有一间可容纳大型聚会的包间，其墙饰描绘了飞鸟翱翔于金箔天空的景象，
地毯则饰有水润的蓝绿色调图案。Brightliner Sloane 餐椅的靠背配有软垫，
并以皮带固定于胡桃木框架之上，其造型柔和地环抱就坐者。每一个独特而又视觉连贯的空间，
都为宾客提供了卓尔不凡的体验。
Interior design firm AvroKO—a frequent Stellar Works
collaborator—brought deep, rich hues into the spacious dining areas to
create a sense of intimacy. The dark materials, lustrous metals, and
strategic placement of grand architectural elements like columns and
seating frameworks all help to reduce the scale of the spaces.
