Entry DescriptionBluestone Lane Coffee’s Manhattan West café is located in the heart of a dynamic new neighborhood on the west side of Manhattan. Seamlessly integrated into the refined industrial-styled lobby of a residential tower, it is a one-stop-shop servicing locals.
Envisioned as a New York flagship, the design of the café represents a shift from the traditional Bluestone Lane experience to a more refined atmosphere with brass tones, industrial elements, exposed concrete floors and geometric patterning throughout. In the evening, the café transitions to a nighttime lounge.
Lighting celebrates these materials and feature elements through careful integration within the architecture, highlighting from illuminated coves. Flexible, track-mounted adjustable fittings disappear against the dark painted ceiling and provide general and accent lighting. Bold pendant lights add decorative flair to this relaxing and luxurious space.
