And now a word from our architect….
Below excerpt is from our architect Charlie Perla.
Bryan sees, Hilda feels, Charlie listens, and Dave builds. What a team.
When Bryan presents one of his creations, he knows that you will first taste the dish with your eyes. He wants VOLT to become the stage, the set, and the backdrop for the culinary experience you are about to enjoy.
Hilda wants to know that you will feel the space the way she envisions. She takes great care in making sure that the fabric texture being proposed elicits the appropriate response. She wants to be sure that the colors project an elegant feeling. She wants the seating to be plush. She wants the space to be inviting.
Charlie hears Bryan and Hilda’s symbiotic challenges. His challenges involve creating an environment that supplements and supports the dinners being served.
Bryan and Hilda want VOLT to be multi faceted. Each room must have a different purpose and take on a different personality. The Main Dining room becomes an elegant dinner guest; The Chef’s dining room becomes a jovial dinner companion; while the Conservatory becomes that formal colleague at your reception. And of course, we mustn’t forget your laid back buddy sipping his libations in the lounge.
All these guests, companions, friends and buddies have to live in harmony within the Historical mansion on Market Street.
Dave is building the spaces with great attention to detail. He has made this project more of a vocation than a construction job.
VOLT is a stage for the Performance of Culinary Arts.
