Feature pieces for restaurants, bars and hotels
Calico builds and hand-finishes bar fronts, banquettes, feature walls and signature pieces for restaurant groups, hospitality designers and owners in Los Angeles. Openings and photo shoots don't move, so we work design and finish in parallel and build to your date.
What we build
- Bar fronts and back bars: carved, paneled or gilded faces built to the drawings.
- Banquettes: built-in seating bases and backs, finished to match the room.
- Feature walls: sculptural, carved and relief walls that set the room.
- Signature pieces: art features, signs and serveware guests remember.
Finishes
Paint matched to your tile or palette, wood veneer, patina, faux finishes and real metal leaf, sampled before we build.
What drives the price
- Size and count: one feature or a whole room.
- Finish: painted, veneered, patinated or gilded.
- Install: delivered finished, or installed through our licensed subcontractors.
- Schedule: a set opening date is normal. A compressed one costs more.
