Guerrilla restaurant, New York

Good things come in small packages and in this case that applies to time, not portion size. Taking advantage of the demise of a former Hard Rock Café in midtown New York, the American food magazine Bon Appetit has taken temporary residence and created in its own words a ‘pop-up supper club’.
Open for just over a week, the guerrilla restaurant plays host to a number of high profile guest chefs, Michael Mina, Giada Delaurentiis, Will Farb and Emeril Lagasse, each given the reins over the kitchen for just a night. By day, the space is open to the public for light meals and by night, the space is transformed into an invitation-only venue hosting after parties, premieres and of course fund raisers (it is New York after all).
Rockwell Group has designed the interior, taking liberties with the temporary nature of the location and inspiration from the time of year by transforming the space from daytime leafy glade to nocturnal enchanted forest. With a combination of candles, hanging mirrors, webs of bungee cords and pools of blue paint dripping from the stairs, the design is daring, dramatic and spectacular, closer to Gotham City perhaps than NYC.
