Farallon restaurant - 450 Post Street, San Francisco, CA (opened June 1997 - closed 2020)
"Farallon is named after a fishing island off the Pacific coast.
The underwater fantasy theme drives the $4 million restaurant. The electric atmosphere grabs customers the minute they walk through the glass doors framed by a brushed steel and Lucite canopy, which vaguely looks like a scallop shell. Giant jellyfish chandeliers hang from the high ceiling. The walls are textured with shellfish impressions, and lighted yellow pillars that climb the walls are imprinted with seaweed. And that's just the bar.
The big main dining room is more elegant, but maintains the marine motif. Tiny tiles form mosaics on the ceiling, where two huge light fixtures are formed into seashells. Even the hood over the kitchen carries out the theme: It's covered in copper scales. And suspended over the counter are beautiful blown-glass lights shaped like fish.
A gracefully curving staircase leading to the mezzanine is covered in 50,000 blue-black glass beads that resemble magnified caviar, while the wall sconces replicate stands of coral and barnacles."
Excellent examples of the 'Org-Nouveau' style popular in the 1990's

Sony Style Store in the Sony Center complex - Berlin, Germany (2000)
"Located right in the heart of Berlin - the new Sony Style Store is the first flagship store in Europe to be inaugurated after the ones in New York, San Francisco and Sydney. Simple backlit glass walls with large bubbles fashioned out of Plexiglas spheres and cubes of frosted glass are the dominant element of the interior, serving to display the products and graphics throughout the premises. Colourful gel cushions just beg to be touched. On the first upper level the theme is cool, futuristic and light. Beetle-like illuminated objects made of translucent Plexiglas and aluminium are used to display the audio products. Video cameras at the window provide a panned view of the interior. The home entertainment area on the second upper level is clearly organised, pared down and elegant. Inviting, liveable arrangements with comfortable armchairs, lamps and hi-fi systems and a high-end studio incorporate the essence of a home movie theatre. "Playtime" is the motto of the uppermost level.
In contrast with most of the games, the space is bright, futuristic and abstract. The relaxed atmosphere invites visitors to play and touch the Playstations. Specially designed title presenters on the walls show current Sony music that can be listened to on headphones or watched in the form of a video or a DVD on a monitor which is mounted above head height. A centrally located round counter that is four metres in diameter serves as an information centre and, during events, it constitutes a major focus when it is used as a bar."

'Cinema Futura' movie theater - Zhongshan, China (2014)
Designed by Alexander Wong
"Вased on futurism and inspired by classic sci-fi movies like Ridley Scott's Alien and James Cameron's Avatar, the design attempts to create the first sci-fi cinema in Zhongshan, China. The 36,800-square-foot interior is a complex composition of organic design elements that create original forms. These forms are custom made with fiberglass molds, bold colors, and dynamic lighting to produce a futuristic ambience.
At the entrance, one immediately arrives at the Plaza Pandora, a surrealistic biosphere with an organic ceiling supported by double-layered spiraling columns with an outer skin inspired by DNA strands called chromosome columns and the movie Alien. Here, one will also notice the white leaf-like patterns on the floor with matching metallic pendant lights swirling dynamically above. The plaza is encompassed by the sensual forms of the Pandora Box Office and Bar Pandora where moviegoers can buy tickets and popcorn to begin their unique journey into movie fantasy. Our inspiration here is nature itself. Nature is filled with the most complex geometrical shapes imaginable. In terms of this complexity and the sophistication of our universe in its entirety, sci-fi and futurism only reflect a tiny fraction. We are deeply inspired, or quite simply, in awe of nature. It is the source of all art forms, including architecture and spatial design."
