Kelly Liken, a fine dining restaurant serving seasonal American cuisine
and fine wines, bears the name of its young female chef/owner. The
color palette, inspired by the colors of wines, is a collage of deep
reds and rich golds. Natural wood and stone add warmth and
authenticity. Circular patterns reminiscent of stains left by the
bottom of wine bottles and glasses are paired with Liken’s own
signature to reinforce the concept of the signature restaurant and wine
bar. Fabrics, tablewares, printed collateral, window graphics and
signage each have their own unique expression of these elements.
From the lighting to the furnishings, from the ultimate chef’s kitchen
to the custom charger plates, every aspect of the project was carefully
designed, detailed and implemented to create a total ambiance that
raises the bar for restaurant design in the Vail Valley.
