Hospitality Inspiration: Custom Texture, Contract Performance
Designed for contract spaces and built to perform, Phillip Jeffries wallcovering transforms hospitality interiors into unforgettable experiences. These richly layered restaurant settings reveal how texture, mood, and performance come together to shape spaces made for gathering, lingering, and returning.

 

 

Built for Bold Hospitality
In today’s most compelling restaurants, bars, and hospitality destinations, wallcovering does more than complete a room—it helps define the experience. With minimums met, Phillip Jeffries specialty wallcoverings can evolve into fully custom solutions, tailored to the needs of contract environments where durability, performance, and visual impact all matter. It’s where specialty meets custom—and where design becomes destination.

Across restaurants and bars nationwide, our performance wallcoverings are crafted to set the scene: tactile, bold, and built for hospitality. From statement bar backdrops to immersive dining rooms, these projects show how texture, pattern, and materiality help shape places people want to stay awhile.

Private Dining With Coastal Sophistication
A longtime favorite in Miami’s dining scene, The River Oyster Bar pairs coastal sophistication with an unmistakable sense of warmth. Studio IDC leaned into that balance, selecting the wallcovering Arboritum to enhance the intimacy of the private dining areas while standing up to the demands of a high-traffic restaurant. The wallcovering introduces depth and botanical style that allows the glow of glassware, the rhythm of conversation, and the energy of the bar to come forward. Designed for performance yet rich in style, the space becomes a polished but welcoming destination. Bold wallcoverings can be both hardworking and headline-worthy.

A Layered, Lived-In Bar
At Arlo’s Kitchen & Bar, the atmosphere is as thoughtfully composed as the menu. Located in the heart of Northport, this buzzy neighborhood spot channels a modern sensibility grounded in texture and tone. Beth Donner Design selected a Phillip Jeffries Styled in Studs wallcovering as a foundational design element—customized to suit the space and elevate the overall mood.

The result is a backdrop worth staying for. Subtle texture and classic nailhead inspired rivets bring warmth to the room, giving the restaurant a layered, lived-in feel. Designed for impact, the Rivets wallcovering helps anchor any space so the atmosphere becomes the story.

Custom Luxury
Tsunami Highland delivers a bold dining experience, and its interiors rise to the occasion. TIEK BYDAY approached the project with an eye toward drama, turning a Phillip Jeffries Renoir wallcovering, a metallic leaf collection, into a custom solution suited for a vibrant restaurant-bar environment. The wallcovering becomes a statement moment and sets the emotional temperature of the space the moment guests arrive. Luxurious texture and tone work together to create visual energy without overpowering the room, offering a refined backdrop that enhances lighting, architecture, and movement. Designed to perform and crafted for impact, the Metallic Leaf wallcovering plays a key role.

Intimate Hospitality Moments
Across hospitality projects for Tao Hospitality Group and Moxies Lower East Side, Rockwell Group continues to redefine how intimate spaces can feel expansive through design. The firm’s approach aligns with a growing industry shift toward environments that feel personal, warm, and human-scaled.

As David Rockwell recently shared in an interview with Bloomberg Pursuits, “There’s an increased value on places where you feel warm and connected… It’s all part of a bigger trend in hospitality and entertainment toward littler places where you feel like the room is scaled to you.” In this project, our Wildflowers collection, a print wallcovering helps define zones, soften acoustics, and create a room that feel intentionally crafted for connection.

 

Specialty, Meet Custom
From Miami to New York to Baton Rouge, these projects demonstrate the power of specialty wallcoverings adapted into custom solutions—designed to deliver impact where hospitality meets performance. Whether redefining the bar, setting the tone through texture, or creating a destination-worthy backdrop, Phillip Jeffries wallcovering helps transform spaces into experiences.
