New York-based designer Billy Cotton has blended art deco, futurist and brutalist references inside this restaurant in Lower Manhattan.
The space combines art deco history with a more innovative futurist edge, creating an atmosphere with old school charm but with a new-age twist.
Named Bridges, the French-Basque restaurant is owned by chef Sam Lawrence and operator Nicolas Mouchel, with creative direction by Josephine Stuart.
The restaurant features banquettes built from cherry wood, glass-block partitions inspired by nearby brutalist architecture, and polished concrete floors.
