Welcome to Fishbrook Design Studio. We are a small, efficient office with a focus on design and client service. Our office is located 40 minutes north of Boston.

I have over two decades of experience with food projects including new ’one-off’ restaurants, prototypes, quick-service, bakeries and cafés as well as institutional dining. These projects range from high-profile, big budget work to small, simple eateries. In addition to leading the design team, I also facilitate restaurant development studies by analysing menu-driven equipment requirements, sup-porting front-of-house/back-of-house/ROI studies, site selection analysis and leasing support.

This booklet contains images and descriptions of some of my hospitality and restaurant projects. In addition to completed projects, it includes studies and design sketches that illustrate our process.

AURA RESTAURANT and TAMO BARBoston, MA

$12.9 million construction cost .

Completed 2009.

Fishbrook Design Studio teamed with BBGM on this three phase renovation of the public areas of the Seaport Hotel in

South Boston. The expanded Tamo Bar takes it’s inspiration from wave forms and nautical themes. The warm woodwork

and intimate scale encourage conversation and lingering. The 4 star Aura Restaurant, Lobby and mezzanine level confer-

ence rooms are unified by their fresh, sophisticated nautical feel. Furnishing, upholstery and finish materials form a coordi-

nated environment that speaks of gracious, understated luxury.

TIO JUAN’S MARGARITAS:Danvers, MA 2010

(construction budget not available)

For this project, Fishbrook Design Studio interprets and

updates the de-facto prototype of a New England-based

Mexican restaurant chain. By channeling the Latin Ameri-

can Baroque architecture of Buenos Aires and Mexico City,

we create a feeling of culture and elegance which hints at

the uncommon sophistication and freshness of the Marga-

ritas menu and attitude.

SEBASTIANS FLAGSHIP CAFéBoston, MA

SEBASTIANS FLAGSHIP CAFé Boston, MA 2007

4,000 sf. $250/sf.

This café is located adjacent to Sebastians Corporate Office and Sebastians Interactive Test Kitchen. It is the flagship location for a national chain of fresh cuisine cafés. Using a series of flowing, floating forms the design gives shape to the queueing patterns formed during peak business. The materials evoke brisk pace and freshness and mesh with the literal walls of lettuce and fresh produce on display.

This is a place to Celebrate Food! SITK is a 1,600 sf culinary teaching space used for team building and similar events featuring haute cuisine cooking.

The design borrows from Culinary schools, High End Dining and Commercial Kitchen design. The decor is both durable and beautiful: Soap Stone Counters, Slate Feature Walls and Bamboo Cabinets. Instruction and ambiance are enhanced by a closed circuit television system and a wall of six large, plasma screen televisions.

Our design collected elements of the several existing Sebas-

tians Cafés and re-deployed them as a new proto-type: the

Flagship Café. This prototype ‘language’ also informs the

design of the Test Kitchen and Corporate Offices.

LIGHT HOUSE COMPLEXSeaport HotelBoston, MA 2007

The Lighthouse complex is a 12,000 square foot element of the conference and event facility operated by Seaport Hotel Bos-

ton. Arrayed on two levels, the event rooms, kitchen and bathrooms are connected by a sculptural stair which has glass and

wood hand rails. Our hospitality interior specialists, BBGM helped us develop a decor and finishes that emphasize the airy and

open nature of the glass event rooms. The Plaza Level is two stories above street elevation and has a commanding view of the

skyline of Boston’s financial district.

AMERICAN CONCEPT:Wilson, NC

AMERICAN CONCEPT:Wilson, NC 2009 - 2010.

In this series of studies, Fishbrook Design Studio explores

aesthetic themes and menu/kitchen/seating relation-

ships for an established restaurateur in the exurbs of

Raleigh, NC. Chef Debi Luper operates a thriving

French cuisine restaurant in Wilson’s revitalized down-

town. We helped her explore the feasibility of opening

an American concept restaurant. We surveyed down-

town buildings and conducted ‘test-fit’ excersises which

looked at menu variations with their attendant kitchen

equipment implications and front-of-house seating

requirements.

PARAMUS PARK SHOPPING CENTER:Paramus, NJ

The 425 seat food court is served by 12 individual food ten-

ants. Base building design accommodates these food tenants

as well as dry-goods tenants on the upper lever food court

area. The food court has 5 distinct seating areas, each with an

identifiable and unique character. These different ‘neighbor-

hoods’ encourage conversation and lingering. The project also

incorporates sub-surface utilities and structure for two future

8,000sf restaurant tenants flanking the Phase 2 south entry.

ABOUT FISHBROOK DESIGN STUDIO:

“Architecture is about people as much as it is about wood and stone.”

Matthew founded Fishbrook Design Studio in 2004. His practice focuses on Hospitality, Residential, Retail, Education and Commercial projects. Fishbrook is a nimble and efficient firm. It uses technology and a network of consultants to take on projects nationwide and next door. Fishbrook has recent projects in North Carolina, Vermont and Connecticut as well as Massachusetts. Matthew has also completed projects in California, Illinois, Florida, New York and New Jersey.

“I make it a priority to be directly involved with each project. My relation-ships with owners and contractors are the cornerstone of this practice. The voices of the owners, the builders and the designers must all be heard in the search for solutions which serve the budget and schedule as well as space, spirit and function.”

A registered architect with 22 years of experience, Matthew is the father of a twelve year old daughter and resides in North Andover, MA. Before start-ing Fishbrook, he worked at architectural firms in Boston and Cambridge. After 15 years at larger corporate firms he founded Fishbrook as a way of working in a more personal and crafted manner. He has deep experience designing institutional projects as well as high end residences. He has man-aged retail, hospitality and public space projects. These larger, fast-track projects provide a context for his current practice.

Matthew serves on the Historic District Commissions in Boxford and Haver-hill. He has been appointed to the Mayor’s Downtown Development Com-mission in Haverhill. His studio was originally located in Boxford, MA in a renovated barn overlooking the Fish Brook. In January, 2011 the practice moved to a loft space in the ‘Arts District’ of Haverhill, MA north of Boston.
