Restaurants Portfolio

Cardamom

This was an expansion and renovation of a well-reviewed Indian restaurant in Ann Arbor. The restaurant roughly doubled its space, added a bar, and renovated the kitchen.

Red Hawk

Red Hawk restaurant, near the UM campus in Ann Arbor, MI, opened in 1992. Cornerstone Design designed this project, which included renovations for the main floor dining room and kitchen, the basement prep kitchen, and a new historically sensitive facade.

Zanzibar

Zanzibar Restaurant was a complete renovation of an existing retail space in downtown Ann Arbor, to create a new restaurant with an airy, tropical atmosphere. Work included extensive structural modifications for a new mezzanine dining area, and new kitchen and restrooms. Zanzibar has since closed, and become Sava’s Restaurant, although much of the Zanzibar work remains intact.

Stucchi’s

Cornerstone Design has worked with Stucchi’s on several of their ice creamstores throughout southeast Michigan. The largest project involved a new building on a busy commercial corridor on the east side of Ann Arbor; the front part of the building was a Stucchi’s store, with the back part being an office tenant space. The store functioned for many years, before being sold and demolished to make room for a larger development. Also shown is a Stucchi’s retail space at Briarwood Mall, also now closed.
