Abstract

The article describes Kaya, the Caribbean-inspired resturant in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania which was designed by Axis Architectural Studio. It was planned as a restaurant/hang-out bar for anyone, particularly those coming from the Civic Arena, theaters, clubs and live music events around the area. Careful research of tropical colors and motifs and hidden track lighting gave the restaurant a Caribbean feel without being campy or themed. An African fertility goddess sculpture dating 1900 inspired the restaurant's logo.
