College of Charleston City Bistro
Charleston, SC
The existing City Bistro dining area on the first floor of Berry Hall at the College of Charleston had a shortage of seating space. Because the interior is built out to its maximum capacity, the best solution was to add seating to the exterior, which turned a previously ignored space into a fresh new space with similar elements, such as brick, to tie it all together. This 9,650 SF project included increasing the hardscape by adding pervious pavement, a large canopy with gas heaters for cooler months, raised planting beds, a new furniture package, an exterior freezer, and festival lighting. Two additional separate exterior spaces are included in the project to increase bike storage at one area and add hardscape to the main entry.
