Transforming SeaWorld's restaurant, Mango Joe's, from a tropical paradise to a cozy winter lodge was a unique and exciting challenge. I had to reimagine the entire space and create a design that would transport visitors to a winter wonderland. My goal was to create a space that felt warm and inviting, while still maintaining the functionality of a busy restaurant.

I incorporated elements such as rustic wood paneling, stone accents, and warm lighting to create a cozy and intimate atmosphere. The use of wintery colors such as blues, whites, and silvers, along with hints of warm oranges and reds, added a touch of festivity to the space. It was important to maintain the SeaWorld branding while creating a new theme, so I worked closely with the SeaWorld team to ensure that the new design was in line with their vision.
