minibar by José Andrés
Restaurant / 3,140 SF / Washington, D.C.
DC food enthusiasts can savor the “minibar” by José Andrés. Acting as architect of record, CORE collaborated and executed the restaurant design envisioned by renowned Spanish architect Juli Capella. The new minibar at 855 E Street NW has a fresh, neutral, and light backdrop that contrasts with bold, whimsical European accents.
Other unique décor elements include: a richly-stained walnut table; a custom-made infinity mirror; white-washed cement wallpaper; Ligne Roset wall sconces, Jaime Hayon couches; and select Cerruti Baleri furnishings.
