Entry Description

Tasked with creating a memorable dining experience, we
set out to create a futuristic, yet functional space that
would host an unforgettable feast.

The inspiration came from a desire to explore the concept
of a Möbius strip. We wanted to build volume out of one
continuous piece. Wrapping around the ceiling, floor, and
running through the table, the goal was to encase
patrons in unforgettable design experience, with no
beginning or end.

Supported by lofty matte black walls, the Möbius strip
was illuminated by diffused LED lights, brightening the
smiles of those seated and the meals to be served. Ultra-
modern details to the futuristic design included a solid
white aggregate table top, capable of charging electronics
wirelessly, white aluminum chairs, and laser-cut acrylic
vignette place settings.

Although conceptualized over three months, the entire set
was erected within a single day.
