California Pasta Prototype
Warm materials, vibrant color, and distinctive lighting come together to create a bright, inviting dining environment for the California Pasta prototype. Extruded white oak vertical slats, paired with bold graphic wallpaper, wrap the walls and extend into the soffit above the ordering queue, creating a cohesive and dynamic customer experience. Suspended neon pictograms animate the dining room, while a colorful stone relief anchors the space and serves as a striking backdrop for seating. The palette of pink, white, and bronze is drawn directly from the stone relief and carried throughout the space, subtly accenting the white oak seating. Designed and constructed alongside a complementary Taqueria prototype, the two concepts share a streamlined back-of-house kitchen and restrooms, maximizing efficiency while maintaining distinct brand identities. | 1,856 SF, Pasadena, CA
