Project Background

The Ala Moana Center in downtown Honolulu is one of the premier shopping venues in Hawaii. It is home to over 350 stores including Cartier, Gucci, Apple, Hermes, Bloomingdale's, and Chanel. The Parasoleil design team was tasked with creating a new dining experience, called the Lanai, that required a material that could create intimacy and maintain open airflow.

Approach

Through the use of multiple Parasoleil patterns and finishes, the Lanai is shaded and retains airflow, while plain walls have become a point of visual interest and way finding through eye-catching patterns.
