The objective of this project was to design a new restaurant for the JeanGeorges Vongerichten Restaurant group opening in a new location in Napa Valley, CA. Using the given context of the chef, restaurant group, and geographical location, I had the task to design, curate the artwork, and develop the brand of this restaurant. Additionally, because this restaurant is for public use, ADA accessibility and compliance with building codes and regulations was required. All public spaces are ADA accessible, including restrooms.

This custom art piece, made by our team, is intentionally designed to portray Honda’s mission and “The Power of
Dreams.” It shows ever y aspect of
the company from
automobiles to planes and all of the people in between that make Honda what it is from the beginning until now. Honda was created to “inspire and challenge us” and to bring out dreams “to life and move society forward,” which shows our intent in creating this piece.
