PARX GRILL<br />

Onyx squares are backlit with cool white LEDs. The casino also wanted the classic fireplace of a steakhouse, but with a contemporary spin: the fire is<br />

actually a computer-generated image.<br />

branches. Colorful commissioned abstract expressionist artworks<br />

are mounted against wood walls to contribute to the sophisticated<br />

ambience of the room. Generously sized upholstered<br />

chairs and banquettes are a custom KlingStubbins design.<br />

“Everyone pulled together to meet our very accelerated time<br />

schedule. The end result was the contemporary fusion approach<br />

that the owners agreed expressed their image,” says Hauber. ■<br />
