From the chain drapery at the entry to the faux vine wall in the dining room, the design is meant to capture the essence of Emeril Lagasse’s culinary journey. Inspired by the French Quarter aesthetic, arched and ironwork details are sprinkled through the space from the custom armoire in the dining room to the scalloped soffit above the bar. Texture lives through the rattan on the chairs, the channel tufting at the banquettes, and light nodules flickering above in the oversized chandeliers. The gallery wall showcases Emeril’s career, paying homage to important figures throughout his life, including his mother. The arched wine windows visually open to the kitchen, becoming an active feature to the design. Green was an accent color to highlight key design elements such as the glazed tile that wraps the bar, the gallery wall set against a forest green paint, and the bar furniture with pine upholstery.
