Time Travel in King Tai, a Brooklyn Bar With Art Deco Accents<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

What happens when architects design their own bar? Attention to detail, for one. Palmer Thompson-Moss, who founded Salle<\/a> with his wife Isobel Herbold, helmed the design and recent refresh of King Tai, a cocktail bar in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn. With the addition of a second floor lounge that opens to a street-facing terrace, the updated interiors feature a restored Art Deco bar, which serves as a focal point for the locale, which Thompson-Moss opened with business partner Dane Risch in 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The bar was sourced by my aunt and it is an authentic vintage Art Deco antique,” Thompson-Moss shares. “It already had the custom marquetry and painting on the front that charmed us so much.” Featuring a mix of teak, mahogany and walnut, the bar doubles as a conversation piece with its whimsical marquetry. “We borrowed some of these details and replicated them with wainscoting and custom tables,” he adds. “We also elongated the bar and built our own bar top to serve our needs.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
