"Invigorating a great city dining tradition"

  • The old bar, tin ceiling preserved, was extended, and seismic retrofit above & all sides

  • The new Dining Room in the vein of the existing, with mirrored arches, new cornice and tin ceiling

The Old Bar Expanded with the Tin Ceilings Preserved

Two remodels at Cota and State Streets, Santa Barbara., including vintage interior reconstruction with tin ceilings, old bar cabs, new archways, the last remodel for a seismic rehabilitation. This restaurant is a landmark in town, yet required seismic work. The old bar was lengthened in matching woodwork, while added arches were provided to extend a dining room adjoining. Existing tin ceilings were preserved and required structural brackets, proportioned to coordinate with the ceiling and wall décor.
