Perry's Memorial City Bar 79 /
Opened earlier this year, the boldly updated Bar79 is the first of its kind for Houston-area Perry’s, featuring an open concept complete with island bar, a lounge area and views of the Memorial City skyline, plus live music six days a week. The bar’s exciting energy is also open and light, still casually elegant yet inviting to all.

Another recent project, this Fogo de Chao is located at Boston’s historic Copley Square, home of a variety of important architectural works; The Public Library, Trinity Church, and Hancock Tower. This early dusk image of the new atrium captures the curved maple paneled walls and restaurant entry. A 12 ft tall x 6 ft wide rustic sliding entry door, amber light boxes penetrating the restaurant walls, stained glass artwork, and the dramatically sized ring shaped chandelier preview the sophistication of the restaurant.
