The NoMad Bar
New York, NY
Interior Design, Architecture
The NoMad Bar was designed as both its own distinct destination and a seamless extension of the attached NoMad Hotel. When purchased, the facade was almost unrecognizable from its original, late 19th century design. The design team worked to reverse time on the building, honoring its history in the restoration with a wood-paneled facade and a bay window taken from the building’s original design to reveal the space’s interior. Conceived as a restaurant with a tavern atmosphere, the space draws influences from The NoMad Hotel’s French-inspired interiors with subtle nods through the use of marble mosaic floors, rich textures and colors, and Persian rugs. The main bar is two stories with a large arch backed by an antique mirror and flanked by custom millwork. The space is completed by the artwork inspired by the neighborhood, with photography captured by local photographer MacKenzie Rollins within two blocks of the area.
