Tucked behind the existing Parker Bowles, a former 3-D print shop transforms into DOOKIE, a Neapolitan-style pizzeria. The task at hand was to extend and connect while maintaining a distinct culinary identity.

Our response was floating sheets of black-stained cork framed by black steel U-profiles with mirrored edges. When parked, these sheets create a fragmented reflection of blue tile and fire from DOOKIE, contrasting with the warm glow of Parker Bowles.

The extension features a continuation of the existing multiplex wood planes used in Parker Bowles, now forming a multi-functional counter, seating, and dining area. Blue tiles merge with the multiplex, extending into the guest area and creating a colorful boundary within the combined spaces.
