The Wright Restaurant
The Wright is a stylish restaurant in the Guggenheim Museum in New York, that gives to visitors a geometric dining experience. The place is both contemporary and complementary. The 487 sq m restaurant offers a playfulness of form as a curvilinear wall of walnut layered with illuminated fiber-optics accentuates the main wall and sculptural forms embellish a flared ceiling. The forms are rooted in Wright’s underlying geometries to create a relationship between the main museum and this new addition.
The creator is Andre Kikoski, whose essential styling has the feeling of procession as one enters the main lobby of the restaurant. He engaged the heightened sense of procession using surfaces and textures animated by movement to create a fluid aesthetic.
