Commercial Space Over 3,500 Square Feet: Tina Marie Koch, ASID
Challenged by historic requirements to maintain the authenticity of the original architecture, Tina Marie Koch of Design Perspectives diligently transformed the Admiral’s Club into a classic 1950s diner. This new space more than tripled the original floor plan, allowing for a kitchen and dining area expansion. With a genuine soda fountain and a DJ booth framed by radiant neon signs, this renovated space harkens back to the idyllic days of sock hops and poodle skirts. An endless supply of memorabilia adorns every room including the newly added ‘Groovy’ and ‘Diner Car’ dining rooms. The redesign also added a room clad in authentic Corvette paint colors to house meetings for the longest running Corvette Owners Club in the U.S. (858/577-2020, www.designperspectives.net)
