KETTNER EXCHANGE
by PGAL
location: san diego, california
The concept for Kettner Exchange was to create a social experience in honor of William Kettner, late congressman from the early 1900’s who brought character, kinship, and political cohesion to San Diego.
The two-story restaurant and lounge features indoor/ outdoor dining experiences that range from traditional dining, lounging, swinging, and even private dining.
Kettner Exchange demonstrates the concept of creating experiential vignettes within a given environment. Although the structure is not that large, one could have multiple dining and social experiences within the venue from formal dining, street level bar, lounge, view-centric informal dining, rooftop bar, private cabanas, and even a chef’s table within the kitchen just to name a few.
