Several months ago, in the travel forum, I posted a photo of a restaurant I saw in the Bellagio Hotel in Vegas. I was in a hurry and didn't get the name then but I just ran across it in Frame Magazine. I thought it was a pretty cool ceiling treatment.
It was done by firm from Berlin by the name of Graft. The link below takes you to their site. Another link goes to the restaurants site. Great interior.
GRAFT is a full service architectural firm located in Los Angeles, California and Berlin, Germany with a collective professional experience that encompasses a wide array of building types including Art and Educational Institutions, Commercial, Residential and Hospitality facilities. The firm has won numerous awards in Europe as well as in the United States and the work has been widely published and exhibited internationally.
GRAFT was established in 1998 in Los Angeles, California by Lars Krückeberg and Wolfram Putz. The firm was joined by Thomas Willemeit in 2001 and opened an office in Berlin, Germany the same year. Currently, GRAFT is undertaking the design of two residential towers in Las Vegas, in addition to a nightclub and the restaurant, FIX, scheduled to open on June 15 in the Bellagio Hotel. Hotel Q, a 71 room boutique hotel in Berlin, opened recently to great acclaim.
GRAFT was conceived as a Label for Architecture, Urban Planning, Exhibition Design, Music and the "Pursuit of Happiness". Since the firm was established, it has been commissioned to design and manage a wide range of projects in multiple disciplines and locations. With the core of the firm's enterprises gravitating around the field of architecture and the built environment, GRAFT has always maintained an interest in crossing the boundaries between disciplines and "grafting" the creative potentials and methodologies of different realities. This is reflected in the firm's expansion into the fields of music, car design, art installations, academic projects and "eventings" as well as in the variety of project locations including Germany, Estonia, Latvia, Italy, France and the U.S., Mexico and China.
