Local design studio Weiszblüth & Brown has finished the design of a vibrant Thai restaurant in Los Angeles dubbed Holy Basil Market. The space is designed to replicate the bold flavors of the menu and it is a compact area with only 16 seats in a 90-square-foot area in Atwater Village.
The chefs and founders of the restaurant, Wedchayan "Deau" Arpapornnopparat, and Tongkmala "Joy" Yuon tapped the studio to elevate the compact space with a theme that would nod to the bustling energy of a Bangkok street market. The studio shares, "Weiszblüth & Brown took cues from the chef's tendency for bright, intense flavors and hard-edge branding. The space, like the food, packs a punch."
