Sometimes visually paring down requires building up. This was the case at the Presidio Social Club where we preserved the clean aesthetic of the space by installing elements that cleverly hid the restaurant's HVAC registers. Steel "wainscoting" with custom perforations was fabricated and installed on the walls to cover the registers along the room's perimeter. Similar perforated plates were made to be part of the underside of the bar and reception desk. Other elements fabricated by the Lundberg Design shop include three glue-chip glass partitions, the bronze-tinted mirrors at the back of the bar, the hot-rolled steel bar serving area, and booth back paneling. We also built the main dining table using two book-matched slabs of California Black Walnut and a hot-rolled steel structure.
