For this project, we were tasked with completely transforming a dated interior into a vibrant, inviting space that truly reflects the rich flavors and culture of the Middle East—all within a tight three-week timeline while the restaurant remained operational. Drawing inspiration from traditional Middle Eastern architecture and design, we incorporated signature elements such as elegant arches, artisanal brickwork, Moroccan lamps, and intricate tile patterns. The result is a space that not only enhances the dining experience but transports guests to another world, immersing them in a sensory journey beyond just the flavors of the cuisine. Completed within the given timeline, this remodel captures the warmth and authenticity of Middle Eastern hospitality, right in the heart of La Jolla, San Diego.
