Project Overview

A Fine Dining Renovation

The project required detailed coordination across luxury dining spaces, lounge environments, architectural features, decorative elements, and operational service areas — while maintaining the standards expected within an active luxury hospitality environment.

Gabriel Bava worked alongside ownership representatives, vendors, and site teams during installation and final operational-readiness activity ahead of reopening.
