Photo Brandon Barre A new Prime steakhouse has opened in one of the Arizona casinos owned by the Gila River Indian Community. It is located on the eleventh floor, offering a fascinating view of the surrounding landscape. Alexis Readinger worked on the design of the restaurant, who decided to move away from the traditional image of a casino restaurant and turn to the local nature and traditions for inspiration. Low shrubs, branching cacti and other vegetation found in the Sonoran Desert and in the foothills of Arizona inspired the designer to non-trivial solutions. In addition to the surrounding nature and Indian culture, the designer was inspired by the “French aesthetics”. Photo Brandon Barre The interior of the Prime steakhouse is made in earthy tones. In the center of the main hall there is a seating area with soft sofas with a back made of rainbow limestone (they serve as a kind of partitions zoning the room). Above them hangs an unusual structure resembling an inverted Mayan pyramid. It is covered with rough plaster and therefore resembles a stone. The central element of the composition is a relief pyramid carved out of stone, growing out of the ceiling.

The same shade is chosen for one of the waiting areas, the second zone is painted in a rich dark green color, which is then repeated in the design of the bathrooms. The walls are covered with green glazed tiles, and the sinks are made of lava stone. The sinks in the toilet area are made of lava stone.

In the evenings, lighted candles are placed on them — an ideal place to admire the evening landscape and think about the eternal. Photo Brandon Barre Ilya Polyakov Original content from the site
