Ventana Big Sur, and Alila Resort, is an iconic resort located in the heart of California Central Coast’s breathtaking landscape. The intimate 59-room property recently underwent a multimillion-dollar renovation to re-imagine the luxury resort experience. As part of the renovation the resort’s restaurant, The Sur House, was refreshed with new furnishings and beautiful space dividers created using Banker Wire’s SJD-4 woven wire mesh pattern.
The interior decor showcases a sophisticated and modern design, where wire mesh space dividers play a pivotal role. These dividers, with their intricate patterns and metallic sheen, add a touch of industrial elegance to the space. The mesh allows for a sense of openness while still providing distinct separation between different areas. This creates a dynamic flow, enhancing both functionality and aesthetics. The natural light filtering through the mesh casts interesting shadows, adding depth and texture to the overall ambiance.
SJD-4 is a pattern that promotes a “Variable Pitch” concept in the Banker Wire manufacturing process. While the pitch, or wire pocket, is a set pattern, a designer can specify the frequency of the weave. This unique control of a wire mesh design allows a designer to play with the visual pattern allowing for a range of visual densities. The customization allows the designer to create the perfect mesh for their application. In the case of Ventana Big Sur, the increased transparency at the top of the space divider allows for uninterrupted sightlines to the stunning ocean views that surround the resort. The frames around the mesh were created using just the center portion of Banker Wire’s versatile spine. The panels were powder coated and then were glazed into the window and door pockets by the millworker.
Complementing the wire mesh dividers, the rest of the decor features a harmonious blend of natural materials and contemporary elements. Wooden accents and neutral tones create a warm and inviting atmosphere, while sleek furniture pieces add a modern touch. The combination of these elements with the wire mesh dividers results in a balanced and visually appealing space that feels both cozy and stylish. The thoughtful integration of these dividers not only defines the space but also elevates the interior design to a new level of sophistication.
