Houston-based design studio GIn Design Group designs the new Lymbar restaurant that is heavily inspired by the upbringing of chef David Cordúa. The menu that is served is based on Latin-Meriterranean cuisine and it honors his family history as a “tribute to all grandmothers.” Gin Braverman at the studio leads the project and is notable the chef’s childhood babysitter.
Braverman explains the design concept behind the look, “We wanted to capture the bustle of a hotel lobby, the polish of a private club and the hospitality of the Cordúa family in the design. Mixed with a confluence of Latin American, Lebanese and Mediterranean textures and art layered over a backdrop of classic mid-century materials such as warm woods, earthy colors and lush greenery.”
