Clark & Bourbon at Live! by Loews, St. Louis

Completed in early 2020 as part of the Ballpark Village expansion in St. Louis, this open-plan, open-kitchen restaurant is the heartbeat of the Live! by Loews hotel lobby. ELD designed the lighting for this project with HKS Architects. In the bourbon room, grazing linear light fixtures graze the walls to create an inviting warm glow behind a wall of bourbon bottles. A concealed linear graze illuminates a tone on tone textured wall of text. The kitchen glows with recessed downlights while decorative fixtures are dimmed to a soft, warm glow. Lighting controls are timed and automated for simple restaurant control. Also pictured: The Bullock, a seasonal rooftop terrace with views of Ballpark Village and Busch Stadium.
