Esteemed judges deemed our project "Bramling Cross" the winner of the 17th annual Northwest Design Awards Hospitality category at their gala last night.
In the historic neighborhood of Ballard, evidence of the
old fishing town still shows between the new housing,
shopping, and restaurants like Bramling Cross. With a
local chef as the client, the desire was to create the
perfect gastropub to celebrate his work alongside an
extensive selection of local beer. This long and narrow
space came with a number of challenges, including a
very unique ceiling structure that spans between the
walls of the two neighboring buildings. While adding new
skylights to brighten the space, new structural posts were
added along both masonry walls to create a rhythm for a
series of two and four seat booths punctuated by display
units and brass light fixtures. The generous bar and
service counter are all Claro Walnut, the highlight of the
space, which ties into the warmth of the brick. With a
combination of traditional and modern details against the
rough texture of the masonry walls and exposed structure
above, Bramling Cross is designed to embrace the rich
character of the neighborhood.
We are so excited about this recognition and are looking forwards to future accomplishments! #ateliYAY
