Thai Chef Restaurant
Dupont Circle, Washington, DC

2002 commercial renovation
size: 1600 sf

Inscape Studio transformed an aging single-story Italian restaurant into a sophisticated Thai restaurant and sushi bar. With the ceiling removed and storage relocated, a mezzanine was added to the new double-height space. Intimate dining areas are created within an open contemporary design, which is both simple in plan yet vibrant to the eye. Cool colors of the floor tiles, carpet, steel, glass and river rock, give way to a fiery red backdrop making for a dynamic dining experience.
