Take a seat at the community table and look up to see the wood barrels. New lighting brightens the space as it reflects from the fermenting tanks, glazed partitions and bottles suspended from the ceiling. The bar gives a view to the outside.
The client came to us with a bag of roasted beans, a Mexican light fixture, an oak pallet, several works of art, a pour-over frame, and a bright yellow skull. We went from there. We included hand crafted wood work by Arrowhead, and by the Owner. The exterior storefront opens to the street and the southern sun...
The chef is a genius– performing miracles with fresh food. Fiction Kitchen is a simple restaurant fit-up in an urban setting— a connection between neighborhoods, a missing link to feed development in Raleigh. And a façade you cannot miss.

The basement of a historic building in downtown Raleigh becomes a speakeasy bar and lounge with a catering kitchen. Once patrons enter from the sidewalk above, they will choose one of two hallways leading to the first of three bars. The first is white, bright and very inviting. The second is darker and more polished with metal archways and plush seating. The third is invitation only and houses the bar’s speakeasy component.
We’ve known these guys from their outrageously fresh juice cart, on the corners of Fayetteville Street during the summer months, and custom deliveries all year round. We were thrilled when they walked in our front door. This is an ideal location for a kitchen with nothing to hide. Prep and serving areas are fully visible. The indoor environment is just as fresh as the outdoor seating. Bright, minimal, interior finishes reveal the colors of the food and the warmth of the staff.

This project was a puzzle to design in an existing street level of a downtown existing apartment building. The concept originally was to contain a bar, brewery, market and café. A mezzanine area was to house a grain storage area for the brewery and market as well as office space for the staff. The plan was to open up the space in phases while allowing each function to get off the ground.

Very careful site design, built exactly within the limits of Raleigh’s new Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), bridging the vibrant Oberlin commercial corridor and the historic residential neighborhood. The design included shell office space and corner retail, with a full interior fit-up for a new medical office. The building is suspended over parking and integrates site amenity areas for pedestrians and patrons.
