Lucia - Italian Bistro
Elevating neighborhood dining through adaptive reuse, layered detailing, and spatial precision
Lucia is a refined Italian bistro crafted within the shell of a former pho restaurant in Atlanta's Glenwood Park. Working within the constraints of the existing layout, the design reimagines the space through layered detailing and focused spatial edits. A carefully reshaped bar anchors the interior, introducing custom metal shelving and vertically tiled textures, while layered banquette seating maximizes intimacy and flow within a compact footprint.
With services ranging from concept design to permit documentation, the project balances hospitality ambiance with regulatory precision. Key moves, like the continuous seating along windows and a softly lit bar zone, foster an atmosphere of warmth and cohesion, bringing the client’s vision of intimate neighborhood dining to life.
