Photo by Tim Hursley; A expansive curtain wall along the southwest side of the main lobby capitalizes on views of the Ozark landscape, transforming the scenery into a dynamic backdrop. Suspended baffles subtly guide the eye toward the horizon, while minimal seating maintaining flexibility for large crowds.

Photo by Bonnie Leonard; The central kitchen serves as the focal point of the linear restaurant, flanked by bar seating and booths along the main circulation path. It is highlighted with green textured tile, and the bar counter illuminated by large round bulbs. As the only green element in the main dining area, it naturally draws attention, guiding guests’ eyes to the heart of the space.

In the area that housed the shower and on the adjacent wall, Margie and her team removed the walls that did not contain plumbing and created an abundance of storage space.

For the range, sink and storage walls, the team chose a zellige tile for the backsplash and extended it to the ceiling. The client loved that it had a handmade look without being too distracting.
Margie Baumann, ASID
Silver
The refrigerator was pushed to the left, fully utilizing the space on that wall and creating a space to relocate the range. This gifted the clients a large solid countertop for prep.

These clients desired fun, colorful finishes - not your basic kitchen.
