Kitchen 21
Brooklyn, NY
Originally completed in 1924, the nautical themed Childs Restaurants is a New York City designated landmark on the Coney Island Boardwalk. The building has been restored to house Kitchen 21 – a new, five-in-one restaurant designed by EwingCole. In a nod to Brooklyn’s landmark Parachute Jump, the row of restored arched windows behind the long bar overlook the Jump while a replica of one of the double seat swings that used to freefall from the amusement ride hangs inside the restaurant. The steel structures and lighting between the arched windows were inspired by historic images of the amusement parks at Coney Island in the late 1800’s -early 1900’s: Luna Park, Steeplechase and Dreamland. The seating was designed to provide optimal viewing of the stage for the restaurant patrons when the stage doors are open. The café counters are mobile and designed to allow flexibility for the restaurant: hosting movie nights, beverage tastings, or event rentals.

Fillmore Philadelphia
Philadelphia, PA
Originally the Ajax Metal Company building (circa 1893), the space has been creatively adapted into a new 40,000 sf, state-of-the-art live music venue. Live Nation wanted to incorporate the idea of housing two venues in one. The main event space has a 2,500 person capacity, while the smaller event space known as The Foundry has the capacity to hold 450 people. The design incorporate distinctive cultural features of Philadelphia, the raw intensity of the existing factory, and the Fillmore’s signature brand elements and legacy features.
“The design showcases the successful repurposing of a building into an entertainment destination that is well done, well branded, and sustainable. The project features a unique space created with everyday materials where the grit factor is authentic and not forced.”

SAP Sponsorship Fit-Out at Metlife Stadium
East Rutherford, NJ
This project is SAP/EMC’s joint, multi-million dollar ‘cornerstone’ sponsorship fit-out at Metlife Stadium. There is a unique, multi-level environment – from branded entry gates and arrival plaza to a bespoke premium suite, the cornerstone sponsorship encompasses five levels within the stadium. Features include interactive “shout-out” kiosks in the arrival plaza, a two-story “shimmer wall” graphic hanging in the main vertical circulation tower and a high-end suite interior with interactive, state-of-the-art audio/visual technology. A custom “in-house” app jointly developed by the teams and SAP/EMC extends the branding beyond the physical space enabling fans to watch replay video, check fantasy football statistics, and engage with the teams and other fans via social media. The fit-out was complete in December 2013, in time for Super Bowl XLVIII.

MetLife Stadium
East Rutherford, NJ
EwingCole performed the master planning, programming, design and documentation to develop a new stadium for the NFL’s Giants and Jets. As one of the NFL’s premier facilities, it features club seats, suites, and other premier seating, with exceptional sightlines from every angle. The 82,500-seat stadium, one of the league’s largest venues, is the only one home to two professional teams in the same sport, and the first to be constructed entirely from private funds. AT 2.1 million SF, the facility features 200,000 SF of year-round retail and dining space including a hall of fame and team store.
“This will be our home for many, many years to come. I think EwingCole deserves a lot of the credit for having the vision to create an environment where we have everything we should ever need in order to be successful.”
