At the end of 2017, Goodnight Hospitality opened Goodnight Charlie’s as a hotspot for country artists, whiskey lovers, and taco enthusiasts. Renfrow+Co partnered with the Houston-based hospitality group to create Corten planters and edging for Goodnight Charlie’s, and we had a fantastic experience working with their team. By late 2022, Goodnight Hospitality decided to take the space in a new direction, opening a new concept that blended the best of London and Houston. Given our previous successful collaboration, they invited us back for the renovation.
Design plans for the new concept featured bronze everywhere—from doors to bar shelving to foot rails across the bar floor. We took their initial mockups and developed a fully engineered plan to meet their needs.
Fabrication of the bronze pieces was more advanced due to the curved shapes of the pieces, which required the skills of advanced craftsmen. So we brought in our very best to rise to the occasion—Hector and Pollo. These guys are known around the office as “the Jordan and Pippen of fabricators” due to their exceptional abilities and attention to detail. When asked about their favorite part of the project, they said, “While curving each bronze and stainless steel piece was very difficult, the end result is worth it. The welding details are clean and look beautiful. We are very proud of this project.”
The final result was a stunning modular brass shelving system with integrated lighting and a patina finish to ensure longevity. We selected and sourced the finest materials to match the restaurant’s high standards. Additionally, we created planters for the entrance and outdoor seating area so guests can enjoy Montrose views while waiting. Although outdoor items like planters are our bread and butter, the opportunity to create fine art pieces for an indoor setting excited our team.
We are grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with such talented partners on this project. Our team members crushed it, as is evident by the end-products. The Marigold Club offers a beautiful dining experience where patrons can enjoy sophisticated seafood, drinks, and more. Stop by, and be sure to look for Renfrow+Co details throughout!
