Jalisco Norte was my last full interior project while serving as design director for Coeval Studio. I was responsible for carrying out the initial concept of the restaurant to completion, from developing the interior material boards, designing custom lighting, furniture, doors, bar shelving, completing a full FFE specifications book, reviewing architectural plans, and overseeing the final placement of a Jalisco mask art installation, planters, and seating arrangements. Beyond the interiors, I also hand painted all of the signage on the exterior of the building and doors, a quote mural by Chef Jose Mesa in the entrance foyer, and script style lettering for all the restrooms and directionals. To complete the space, I hand painted a delicate ribbon mural that wraps around the entire bar.
Jalisco Norte is a traditional Mexican restaurant located in Dallas, Texas. Guests are welcomed by an intricate custom designed tile floor pattern and sign painted elements at the entrance.
Script style lettering is weaved throughout the interior space, including the restrooms.
