The Republic

Richmond, VA

Shortly after smoking laws were passed we designed a 2-sided bar addressing all regulations for permitting interior smoking on one side. The wooden bar and back bar elements are made of reclaimed wood from reStore. The bar was designed to look continuous throughout the 2 spaces. The imperfections were filled with black grout and marine coated for a glass-like durable surface.
