Superior Seating Elevates Lucia Rose Italian Restaurant with Custom Furniture, Blending Coastal Charm and Modern Elegance

Lucia Rose Main Dining Area & Bar

Lucia Rose, located in Addison, IL, offers a unique dining experience that blends the vibrant flavors of coastal Italian cuisine with a modern, elegant atmosphere. This case study explores how our custom furniture solutions transformed the restaurant, enhancing its sophisticated and welcoming ambiance while staying true to their Italian roots and location.

Coastal Italian cuisine is celebrated for its fresh ingredients and bold flavors, inspired by the picturesque coastal regions of Italy and other areas by the Mediterranean. At Lucia Rose, guests can savor these culinary traditions in a setting that perfectly balances contemporary design with classic Italian charm.

The vision behind Lucia Rose was to create an original concept that honors Italy's rich coastal heritage. It's Owner, Chef Davide D'Andrea originates in Basilicata, Italy where he learned about the very fresh seafood dishes, and handmade pasta he crafts at Lucia Rose. The interior design mirrors this dedication to quality, incorporating both modern elements and traditional Italian aesthetics to create a modern yet traditional ambiance.

The Challenge: Designing Custom Furniture With Modern Elements and Traditional Details

Lucia Rose sought to create an atmosphere that honors the coastal culinary traditions of Italy while incorporating the modern comforts expected in a high-end dining establishment. The primary challenges included:

  • Meeting the seating layout needs: Working out the best furniture choices and use of space for each area of the restaurant, including the main dining areas, the bar, and any indoor/outdoor transitional areas.
  • Selecting functional and versatile seating: Adding custom design booths, and fully upholstered chairs in key areas of the dining room in order to increase seating capacity while maintaining comfort.
  • Maintaining cohesive branding: Customizing the furniture selection with unique commercial grade materials and finishes that reflect Lucia Rose's unique brand identity and the cultural influences of Italian cuisine while remaining functional in a high-traffic commercial space.

The Solution: Customized Restaurant Furniture That Met The Restaurant's Functional and Design Needs

The team at Lucia Rose envisioned an elegant yet comfortable dining environment that would honor both Italy’s coastal culinary traditions and the modern comforts expected in high-end dining. Achieving this vision required more than just aesthetics—it demanded custom commercial-grade furniture solutions that balanced form and function, seamlessly aligning with the restaurant's brand identity while meeting its operational needs.

Our goal was to ensure that each product not only enhanced the visual appeal of the space but also provided the durability and versatility necessary for a high-end, high-traffic dining environment. Below is a closer look at the custom furniture solutions selected for Lucia Rose, each tailored to meet the specific needs of the restaurant's different areas.

The combination of thoughtfully selected furniture ensured the perfect balance between aesthetics, functionality, and durability. Each piece works in harmony with the others, creating a cohesive dining environment tailored to the restaurant’s unique vision and operational needs.

Each solid oak plank table top, finished in a natural tone, was paired with a contemporary black powder-coated round base to offer both stability and elegance. The natural wood grains of the table tops provide a rustic charm, bringing warmth and character to the space, while the modern, sleek table bases ensure that the overall design maintains a contemporary feel. The restaurant booths played a critical role in maximizing seating capacity while enhancing the restaurant’s ambiance with custom commercial grade material finishes.

What do customers say about Lucia Rose?

"The restaurant is designed very well. It's beautiful, elegant and well kept. It's a city/posh vibe with colors that are neutral and inviting with an accent of a deep emerald green.

For food I tried the caprese salad which was light and refreshing. The portion is fairly large so this is a salad that can be shared. I also tried the tartufo wood fired pizza and it was delicious. The flavors are well balanced and overall a solid pizza - this is also fairly large and can be shared. I recommend ordering a few diff things and just sharing with everything you're with."
