Boca West Country Club

The overall project goal was to transform Boca West Country Club, Inc. – main clubhouse, that had dark and dated finishes, furnishings, and lighting to a new, light and fresh palette. We always strive for our designs to be timeless. This project was no exception. We created spaces that were bright for daytime but moody and had a lounge-like feel for evenings. The lobby & pre-function lounge include multiple seating groups creating small intimate areas that couple together for larger parties to gather throughout.?
The clubhouse had an outdated bar that was no longer used to seat and serve members. It was only used for service by the wait staff. We removed the overhang from the face of the bar in order to look more like a walk-up counter rather than a bar. We also opted to remove the barstools. The back bar serves as a focal point in the room with a large, oversized, striking piece of art. Additional key features include custom sliding doors, leather wrapped panels at the face of the bar and accent lighting. Across from the bar is banquette seating with an exaggerated back and custom wallcovering. Stained pilasters with decorative sconces mirror the stain at the bar. All these features make what used to be an unused area come to life.?
Another challenge included making the extremely large dining room feel more intimate and not like a sea of tables and chairs. We added painted, seeded glass, partitions to float throughout the tables. Pedestals with antique mirror insets and large floral arrangements on top, also help to break up the space. Oversized artwork was installed on the partition wall that divides the two ballrooms. This gives member’s another area to rest their gaze and makes each space feel unique.?
High-end finishes became the foundation for these key features that were complimented with intricately detailed custom furniture, luxurious fabrics, and commissioned artwork. Creating a timeless design that members are sure to enjoy for years to come.? BR
