about

Appleseed once again partnered up with the owners of El Barrio to turn this former yogurt shop into the now one-of-a-kind “barcade”. The owners came to Appleseed with a vision based on “Grandpa’s garage”. There are vintage arcade games throughout the space while patrons can order a drink from the custom bar made of old tire rims. Appleseed contracted with a local welder to fabricate the wall of wheels for the face of the bar. Using stacks and stacks of plywood and over fifteen gallons of glue, Appleseed created a beautifully understated bar top that compliments the focal point bar front. Appleseed also removed the existing storefront glass and replaced it with three roll-up glass garage doors, to further accentuate the garage aesthetic. All the furniture that you see was developed and fabricated right in Appleseed's workshop.
