Explore the fresh ambiance at Albarino Restaurant, where Leslie Dowling's visionary design features our handmade modern Solitaire Pendant Lights suspended from the Circular-9 Multi-Pendant Canopy and 12 of our Gray Helio Pendants gracefully illuminating the bar area, creating a dining experience that delights both the eyes and the palate.
This project involved the complete interior renovation of a vintage commercial space. The initial phase of the renovation involved updating the concrete floors and the lofty twelve-foot pine ceilings, complete with exposed steel beams. This combination created a rustic backdrop that evokes the feel of a traditional Galician tavern. The space is further enhanced by a color palette of blues, greens, and natural wood tones, reminiscent of vineyards and the sea, which adds a fresh and vibrant touch.
The design seamlessly integrates modern and rustic elements. Gray Helio Pendant Lights and dark walnut millwork introduce contemporary sophistication, while custom-designed bronze bar fixtures add a timeless touch. This thoughtful combination creates a harmonious environment that balances the old-world charm with modern sensibilities.

GRAND ILLUMINATION
The focal point of the renovation is the multi-colored Solitaire Pendants installed using a Circular-9 Multi-Pendant Canopy suspended from an impressive twenty-one-foot ceiling above the communal dining area, adjacent to the main bar. This eye-catching fixture not only provides illumination but also acts as a vibrant centerpiece that enhances the vintage-modern ambiance of the restaurant.
The Crystal, Gray, and Sapphire glass Solitaire Pendants, with their stunning range of colors and elegant design, add a dynamic visual element to the space. Drawing the eye upward, they create a captivating dining experience. The pendants echo the vibrant colors of the octopus artwork, creating a visually captivating synergy that enhances the room’s ambiance. Their rich, translucent hues evoke the essence of the sea, bringing the deep, enigmatic waters of Galicia into the space. |
Gray Helio Pendants elegantly blend modern aesthetics with classic craftsmanship. Their sleek, contemporary design is beautifully complemented by the rich hues of handmade glass, creating an ideal fusion of old-world charm and modern design. These pendants strike the perfect balance between bright and ambient lighting, ensuring the bar is well-lit for staff and guests. Their stylish design not only enhances functionality but also elevates the overall space, adding a touch of sophistication and warmth to the bar area.
The Albarino Restaurant, designed by Leslie Dowling exudes meticulously chosen design elements that offer a dining experience that is welcoming, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed. Beyond just a culinary delight but also a journey through a beautifully crafted environment where every detail contributes to an unforgettable experience.
