In the mecca of cutting edge culinary art, Los Angeles, ARK has been vastly inspired by the movement and endless creativity of our city’s chefs. As restaurants here and across the globe, move towards a more experiential-focused dining atmosphere; we are building a catalog of wares to support their ideas. Canvases- so to speak- for the food they dream up.
If the dining experience is centered around beautiful ingredients and the inventive arrangement of those elements – then the pieces that support that should be equally magnetic, strong, rendered, and intentional. Restaurants and chefs can rent our collected functional ceramics, glassware, and linens, or we can custom design and source wares to suit your vision.
