The Space

A Space Carved from Stone and Timber

Step into Savory Feast, where volcanic charcoal walls, deep teal accents, and warm timber create an intimate social club atmosphere. The interior is designed for lingering conversations, exceptional dining, and the quiet thrill of offline poker.

  • Ambient lighting with warm, low-level sources.
  • Natural materials: stone, timber, and soft textiles.
  • No neon or casino gloss; instead, understated elegance.

Design Philosophy

Volcanic Charcoal & Deep Teal

The palette draws from New Zealand's volcanic landscapes: deep charcoal stone, rich teal, and warm ivory. These colors create a sense of grounded luxury, while natural timber adds warmth and texture.

  • Volcanic charcoal walls provide a dramatic backdrop.
  • Deep teal accents appear in upholstery and decorative details.
  • Warm ivory surfaces soften the overall mood.

Materials with Presence

Every surface is chosen for tactile quality: honed stone floors, timber tables, and brushed metal fixtures. The result is a space that feels both robust and refined, inviting touch and prolonged presence.

  • Honed volcanic stone flooring.
  • Solid timber dining tables and bar tops.
  • Brushed brass and matte black metal details.

Lighting as Atmosphere

Lighting is layered and dimmable, with warm pendant lights over tables, soft wall sconces, and subtle cove lighting. The goal is to create pools of intimacy without harsh glare.

  • Warm 2700K LED lighting throughout.
  • Pendant lights over dining tables and poker tables.
  • Dimmable zones for different times of day.

  • Acoustic panels reduce noise for comfortable conversation.

Views and Vignettes

  • Local artwork on walls.
