Brown Forman Distillery

elite|studio e was engaged by the operator at Brown-Forman to design a new employee dining experience for the spirit and wine company. Keeping fexibility in mind, our team established a space that could be used for morning and night, work and relaxation, and 

collaborative and individual objectives. 

For example, the rendering above zooms in on the event bar located in the dining room. This unique focal point is a barista bar that converts into an event bar. This feature provided Brown-Forman with the opportunity to use this amenity for employees in the morning, new product tastings, and internal team and client events. The furniture surrounding the space also features multiple zones and 

textures continuing to bring design interest to the space and fexibility to employees.

Our design activated and customized a space through shapes, textures, color palettes and accents that align with the company’s identity.  The rendering below showcases many of the features incorporated by our designers to embrace the Brown-Forman brand. In addition, the historical integrity of the Brown-Forman building was embraced throughout the space embracing the brick and other structural accents, including various metals, supporting beams, wood and concrete.
