Islyn Studio has designed Chleo in New York, United States.
"Aiming to shift the status quo and create a more equitable and sustainable future, the client's
objective for their first self-owned restaurant in Kingston was to offer the experience of fine
dining while stripping away the formality, structure, and elitism that makes it hard to reach," said Islyn Studio.
The project's mission extended to celebrating the bounty and people of the Hudson Valley, in an effort to connect with the land and those who cultivate it.
This was achieved through fire, wine, and nourishment – the first things said to have brought people together in Kingston.
This project has been longlisted in the restaurant and bar interior category of Dezeen Awards 2023.
