> In New York, David Chang's Momofuku Group empire spans the
always-packed Ssäm Bar to fried chicken sandwich hotspot Fuku,
recently opened Nishi, and several restaurants in between. There are
buzzy outposts in Toronto and Sydney, too, and now-with the arrival of
Momofuku CCDC and sister bakery Milk Bar-Washington, DC.
For Chang's Capital City debut inside mixed-use development
CityCenterDC, local firm //3877-with the support of Toronto-based
DesignAgency-embraced an organic palette for the 10,000-square-foot
space.

Upon entry, guests choose between Milk Bar's chalkboard signage
or Momofuku's wood panels. In the former, there is a commodious
service area with a wood counter, while the latter has an open kitchen,
communal tables, and a banquette surrounded by a wooden pergola. A
warehouse-style window divides the two concepts.
"We wanted to make sure we maintained the simple and functional
aesthetic that is a trademark of all their locations," explains //3877
partner David Tracz. With modest utilitarianism at the forefront of
the design scheme, the team paired white oak with concrete flooring.
The wood walls are a focal point, as are the steel-and-glass grid
panels dividing Milk Bar from the private dining room. Amplifying
Momofuku's impressive height is a custom lighting rig crafted by local
studio Bare Knuckle Fabrication, which extends from the ceiling and
illuminates the entire room.
"Everything we did has a purpose and great impact-from the rigs,
which help bring light down to the floor, hold speakers, and make the
entire space feel shorter, to the main server station, which also acts as a
divider wall for the private dining room," explains Tracz.
Bold paintings by James Jean, David Choe, and Miguel Calderón
enliven the restaurant, particularly Jean's large-scale depiction of
peach and cherry blossoms, underscoring the connection between
Momofuku's emblematic fruit and the decidedly DC flower.
