Specialty Food Court/Counter-Service Restaurant
Award of Merit
Walt Disney Imagineering/Global Retail Store Development, Lake Buena Vista, Fla.

This Saratoga Springs beverage/retail venue for Disney's time-share resort guests features an upscale-casual design inspired by an artist's loft. Stained concrete flooring in the food and beverages area adds to the urban feel -- and makes cleanup easy. Exposed brick, millwork, artful lighting and vibrant banners define the space and scale down the high ceilings.
