Commonwealth

Location: 11 Broad Canal Way, Cambridge, MA 02142

Completion Date: 2013

Client: Steve 'Nookie' Postal

Size: 8,300 SF

Commonwealth features a 1,300 SF marketplace, 5,200 SF restaurant/bar, private dining room, and outdoor patio located on the ground floor of a modern full-service high-rise apartment complex. RODE envisioned a material palette of large rough architectural elements paired with warm rustic surfaces. Back-lit wooden pallets, copper bar and market counter all work together to create the visual patterning inspired by the construction techniques of an idyllic rustic barn.
