Decemil Tasting Room

Ongoing Tenant Improvements

We are currently working on the tenant improvement for a boutique wine tasting room nestled within a compact infill space. Despite the limited footprint, the design is focused on delivering a luxurious, intimate experience, carefully balancing function and atmosphere. The layout will include an ADA-compliant restroom, a dedicated wine storage room, and a discreet service area to support staff operations—all seamlessly integrated to maximize efficiency without compromising on elegance.

The tasting room itself is being crafted with moody, speakeasy-inspired interiors that evoke a sense of discovery and exclusivity. Rich materials, dramatic lighting, and refined detailing will set the tone for a memorable guest experience. As we navigate the constraints of the existing shell, we’re simultaneously developing a permit-ready drawing set and a high-touch architectural interior package to ensure both code compliance and an elevated aesthetic.

Project Features

  • Intimate Experience

    This intimate tenant improvement project demonstrates a meticulous approach to spatial design and sensory experience. In the narrow footprint, custom bench seating and low-hanging pendant lighting accentuate the linearity of the space while enhancing its sense of intimacy. A thoughtfully designed fireplace niche, anchored by plush velvet banquettes, creates a secluded lounge moment—offering guests a more private and immersive experience.

  • Acoustic Considerations

    Acoustic performance has been a key consideration throughout the process. Every surface and finish has been thoughtfully selected not only for its visual character but also for its ability to absorb sound and reduce echo, ensuring a quiet, intimate ambiance where conversation can flow naturally.
