West Egg Cafe

Name: West Egg Cafe
Location: Atlanta, GA
Design: Square Feet Studio


What catches my eye about West Egg Cafe, located in the heart of Atlanta, is it's simplicity and authenticity. In design, simplicity always seems like it would be the easiest element to achieve when in reality, it's one of the hardest. Keeping a minimal palate and limited materials drives you to analyze each components location, use, and function in the larger picture. Creating a space that is functional, efficient, and cohesive while avoiding the sparse, under-developed feeling traditionally associated with simplicity and minimalism, is a true test. West Egg Cafe accomplished this simplicity and still managed to create a visually interesting, functional, and inviting space.

Barcelona Atlanta

Name: Barcelona Wine Bar & Restaurant
Location: Atlanta, GA
Designer: Square Feet Studio


Barcelona, located in Atlanta is easily one of my favorite  examples of modern and rustic mixed. With floor to ceiling wood-clad walls, graphic artwork, industrial fixtures and metal details, you simply cannot go wrong. Sticking to a minimal color palate of browns, blacks and whites allows for the space to feel harmonious and allows the materials to shine. I can't wait to make a stop in the next time i'm in Atlanta.

Miller + Union

Name: Miller + Union

Location: Atlanta, Georgia

Designer: ai3

What we love:

1. It is located on what used to be stock yards. It makes me want to start up a project in Chicago's old stockyards. There is just so much history pouring out of locations like these, you have to embrace it.

2. They make their own ice cream sandwiches. The space itself is beautiful but pair that with homemade ice cream sandwiches and you really can't be beat.

We love the industrial farmhouse feel. There is a beautiful combination of tradition cabinets, concrete floors, industrial pendants and vintage finds that creates an open, warm and inviting space.
