A Tented Ceiling of a Different Kind.. NYU Restaurant

What do you get when you mix an old liquor factory and some serious ingenuity?

The Beirut bar/restaurant MYU, created by Architect Paul Kaloustian.

Two vaults, covered in translucent black fabric define the restaurant and bar spaces,

 with a window between for a visual connection-

clever and so original.

The lighting can be dimmed to increase the feeling of enclosure later in the evening..

such sultry ambiance.

Cocktails, anyone?

til next time..
