Though it\u2019s approaching the end of its year-long 50th anniversary celebrations, New York\u2019s Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum <\/a> isn\u2019t through with the festivities yet: December 11 saw the grand opening of its newest restaurant, The Wright. <\/p>\n

Named after the Fifth Avenue museum\u2019s architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, the 58-seat restaurant was designed by Andre Kikoski Architect <\/a> and features a modern American menu by David Bouley <\/a> prot\u00e9g\u00e9 Rodolfo Contreras featuring local seasonal dishes like seared diver scallops in sea urchin sauce and slow roasted suckling pig with quince and violet mustard.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was both an incredible honor and an exhilarating challenge to work within Wright\u2019s iconic building,\u201d said Kikoski. \u201cEvery time we visit, we see a new subtlety in it that deepens our appreciation of its sophistication. We sought to create a work that is both contemporary and complementary.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInspired by and created within an institution renowned for its art, architecture and innovation, The Wright will extend that experience to its food and service,\u201d adds the restaurant\u2019s director, Aaron Breitman. \u201cThe Wright will appeal to neighbors seeking stylish and sophisticated dining as well as visitors who want to experience the thrill of New York in one of the city\u2019s greatest cultural treasures.\u201d<\/p>\n

Centered on a communal table, Kikoski\u2019s channeled Lloyd Wright\u2019s iconic spiraling white design from 1959 in the nearly all-white 1,600-square-foot-space. Standouts include a curvilinear walnut wall layered with illuminated fiber-optics offsets a bar topped in seamless white Corian and clad in a shimmering skin of custom metalwork. A sweeping banquette is glammed up with vivid blue leather seating backed by illuminated planes of woven gray fabric underneath a layered ceiling canopy of taut white fabric.<\/p>\n

The ceiling is also home to the restaurant\u2019s signature artwork, a colorful site-specific sculpture of horizontal powder-coated aluminum planks by British artist Liam Gillick that marks the entrance and descends from overhead to cover the Wright\u2019s walls\u2014just like in the museum\u2019s galleries.
