Materials

A collaborative design team worked with Donatos Pizza to redefine its brand and create an open and inviting space in a former hair salon.

A black anodized DRS Rail System was specified for the project, providing base material for a specialized red glass wall. With a slim profile that supports maximum expanses of glass, the rail system discreetly floats the glass without obstructing its beauty.

Rail System Manufacturer: dorma+kaba
