Le Jardinier

About This Project

In the New York City landscape, it’s rare to see anything that contrasts with its urban surroundings. Le Jardinier was born from the idea of a utopian indoor garden where fresh, healthy, natural ingredients take you away from the hustle, bustle, and atmosphere of the city.

Floor-to-ceiling windows and vertical louvers with copious amounts of plants in them simultaneously flood the space with an almost-unearthly light and give it a distinct “Garden of Eden” and “untouched purity of nature” feel.

Our challenge with Le Jardinier was to create one seamless experience, with the aesthetic matching the philosophy as well as the menu.

A RICH PALETTE AND A STRONG IDEA GO A LONG WAY TO CREATING SOMETHING TIMELESS AND BEAUTIFUL. LE JARDINIER ALLOWED US TO EASILY MAXIMIZE BOTH METAL AND GLASS FOR A TRULY ONE-OF-A-KIND EXPERIENCE.
