Case Study
Sofia Miami
You Can't Miss this Tidal Wave Installation When Dining at this Hot Spot in Miami Design District
This is the second location for Sofia restaurant by INK Entertainment, the first being in Toronto. Working in collaboration with Studio Munge, VISO design-engineered and manufactured this feature lighting installation that continues from an indoor space to the outdoor bar area. This unique light fixture is especially designed to be wind-resistant for the Miami climate.
Brief
Creating a bespoke lighting package for a restaurant in the Miami Design Destrict is no ordinary task. Sofia Miami, the second location of Charles Khabouth's restaurant, emulates the trendy locale playing on vibrant hues and required a truly unique lighting installation to start inside the restaurant and continue outdoors to the bar area. Because of this, specific attributions were used to successfully bring this concept to life.
Client Need
Working in collaboration with Studio Munge, VISO manufactured the unique light fixture featured in the bar section that is half indoors and half outdoors. This large installation needed to be specially design-engineered to work with the location's weather conditions.
Challenges
This meant being able to stand strong against Miami gales without compromising the original design intent and aesthetics.
