Crave Kitchen & Bistro transforms a former tattoo studio in Sandy Springs into a refined yet inviting Mediterranean dining space. Through a careful balance of demolition and preservation, the design reconfigures an existing commercial shell into a warm, layered environment that feels both contemporary and timeless. Brick, plaster, wood, and greenery come together to create texture and depth, while natural light and crafted details enhance the dining experience.

Inside, a variety of seating—from intimate booths and banquettes to social group tables—creates rhythm and flexibility across the 120-seat plan. Lush greenery softens edges, woven pendants cast a gentle glow, and Mediterranean accents, from hanging plates to curved feature walls, bring character and identity. The open kitchen, visible through an operable interior window, connects guests directly to the craft of cooking, embodying the restaurant’s spirit of transparency and warmth. Crave is not just a restaurant—it is an adaptive reuse that revitalizes its corridor with design, texture, and hospitality.
