Refined and unique describe this multi-tiered project at Zola Bistro. The main back bar contains floor to ceiling custom modular shelving supported by notched I-beam assemblies and zinc top counter. An L-shaped bench with standing zinc bar back and server station encompasses the main portion of the restaurant. The north-facing wall contains another covered bench assembly with mirrored linear box array and block wall atop. METAL architectural details adorn this bistro, from a maître d’ stand to WC nameplates, all finished in a food safe and semi-transparent powder coat.

Chevron shaped stainless island top with matching accent hardware.

Stainless exterior railing with offset thin newel design and brushed finish.

Mini-red lockers for interactive digital media installation by University of Michigan students.

This three story staircase exhibits forged partition sections mated to fabricated structural members. Floating tread design and articulate joinery support each section which contain offset vertical members and forged ends that provide the viewer with the feeling of a moving or dripping staircase as they move about the room. Structural members display a grey transparent powder coat finish with exposed and blind fasteners. Partition sections are finished using a traditional hot wax process.
