This inspired restaurant is located on Dundas Street West in Toronto. Dubbed 'La Palma,' the design-friendly eatery is launched by Canadian creative Alexandra Hutchison and her husband chef Craig Harding.
The interior of the inspired restaurant takes aesthetic cues from Venice Beach, California -- more particularly, the destination's "art-centric vibe." The concept arose as the couple began drawing analogies between the community-forward and creative atmosphere of Venice Beach and this particular neighborhood in Toronto. The walls are adorned with playfully scattered brushstrokes, with different consistencies and thickness, while the color palette is kept bright, with a strong predominance of blue.
The interior of the inspired restaurant has been completed by Studio Marlowe -- a creative firm that was recently founded by Alexandra Hutchison herself.
