  • Since 1906, The Occidental has welcomed world leaders and Beltway locals alike for classic fare and an insider's perspective. With a nod to its remarkable history and ceremonious pomp, the Stephen Starr team brought back this fine American dining experience.

    We designed a strategic lighting plan to highlight the rich textures and deep colors throughout the restaurant. Thoughtfully placed fixtures enhance the depth of materials, from the warm glow on intricate woodwork to subtle accents that bring out the richness of fabrics and finishes. By layering light to create contrast and dimension, we ensured every surface and detail is illuminated with purpose, enhancing the dynamic palette Ken Fulk envisioned for the space.
