the LittleOnes^® Micro Illuminates the Fashionably Chic

at Manhattan’s latest caviar boutique restaurant and bar

Caviar Kaspia at The Mark Hotel has quickly become an iconic restaurant and bar destination for the ultra-fashionable and chic in New York. A Parisian institution, it first opened in Paris in 1927 and, nearly 100 years later, opened its first NYC location in 2023 at the corner of Madison Avenue and 77th Street.

CONCEPT + REQUIREMENTS
Caviar Kaspia features the bold vision of interior designer Jacques Grange, the interiors of the restaurant and bar by Spivak Architects, and lighting design by L’Observatoire International. The restaurant and bar combined, are 1,350 square feet, with a sculptural Belgian black marble bar, wood-paneled walls, and 8’ 8” high suspended wood-paneled ceilings. The space elegantly marries its Parisian namesake’s warm and intimate atmosphere with classic old-world décor and The Mark Hotel’s trendy and timeless aesthetic.

Carrie Chang, Associate Lighting Designer at L’Observatoire International describes how they created a beautifully lit and cozy dining experience with their lighting design. She explains,

The downlights create brighter light levels across the dining areas during the day, while at night, lighting at the table is more intimate and ambient in contrast to the bar displays.
