Grace O’Malley’s Irish Pub

Norfolk, Virginia, USA
Status: Built
Role: Interior design and spatial concept

Project description

Interior concept for an Irish pub developed to create an authentic atmosphere rooted in traditional materials and spatial structure.
The layout was organised to maintain clear bar visibility, balanced seating density, and smooth circulation between dining and social areas.

The interior language was shaped to reflect traditional pub craft and a strong sense of place, while adapting the layout to contemporary hospitality use.
