Renovation of an existing Starbucks store inside Mandalay Bay Resort, Las Vegas. The material palette including white oak wood, gold metal accents, a dynamic back bar tile pattern and a deep brown textured wall covering uplift the space to make it warm and inviting. Sweeping curves that run along the store creates visual movement and brings the whole store forward. The engine was expanded to support larger sales volume.
