This all-vegan restaurant was design-tailored for tourists and locals of Newport alike. We wanted the space to have a connection to the bright colors you see in vegan food such as fruits and vegetables (hence the pop of color on the chairs). The space feels transformed from the dark and rustic design shown in the before photo.

Our original concept reflected in the above mood board included pineapple wallpaper, which we believed would resonate with the locals, as the pineapple is the official symbol of Newport - all pineapple wallpaper we found didn't meet the project completion date, and in restaurant design, every day shut down for renovations means a day lost of business, so with that in mind we settled on the beautiful leaf wallpaper shown.
