project breakdown
Alder & Ash
Seattle
Before Wilson Ishihara Design could bring
Alder & Ash inside the Sheraton Grand
Seattle to life, the Sonoma- and Oaklandbased
studio, working with local architecture
practice Burgess Design, had to grapple
with a challenging spatial issue. " Originally
built as the loading dock for the hotel, the
existing restaurant came with complex
multi-level conditions that were dark and
closed off, " explains partner Mark Wilson.
" By strategically opening up the space and
punctuating it with feature millwork and
bespoke furniture, the renovated restaurant
flows from an intimate bar and lounge to a
dramatic dining room effortlessly. "
Yet both areas are distinct. The
grounding bar melds a brass screen with
handblown glass that calls to mind Seattle's
ever-present rain, while the dining room's
high ceilings are elevated by oversized glass
chandeliers and artwork.
Wilson Ishihara likes to root its projects
in local stories, and this time around,
" we were inspired by Seattle's legacy
of innovating a groundbreaking tunnel
boring machine, " Wilson points out. " We
incorporated architectural forms that are
carved and rounded, such as an arc-shaped
bar and dramatic coved ceiling. "
An earthy Pacific Northwest palette is
conjured through Zellige tiles, marble, walnut
tambour panels, emerald green upholstery,
and plaid fabrics- " a nod to Seattle's grunge
movement, " says partner Yoko Ishihara.
The dining room's wooden screens, by
contrast, reinterpret a lesser-known aspect
of Seattle history: the three-way collision of
the city grid. " Apparently, the three founders
of Seattle were so stubborn, " adds Ishihara,
" they could not agree with the way the streets
should be organized. "
A cocooning panel adds another layer
of intimacy to the curving banquette
