Granite Properties approached us to create a “statement” coffee shop for Stereoscope Coffee in Newport Beach, CA. The 672 square foot L-shaped space is located on the ground floor of their six story office building. The tall and narrow space allowed for a unique design opportunity. Referencing Italian masterpieces like Correggio’s Assumption of the Virgin in Parma or Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel in Rome, Nashville based artist / photographer Christy Lee Rodgers’, purveyor of modern baroque underwater photography, was selected to cover the ceiling and walls. Her piece, “The Reunion of Cathryn Carrie and Jean” was translated by Wick A+D into a 3D art piece placed on the ceiling and gradating to the white as it flows down the walls. The art is viewed by donning retro 3D glasses that line the white oak shelves. The baroque, minimalist aesthetic is completed with white oaks bench seating, white matte tile and Blue Orca marble.
