Transformed from a lumber warehouse in Albuquerque’s up-and-coming Sawmill District, Sawmill Market’s a food hall and experimental culinary and cocktail laboratory — the first of its kind in the Southwest.
With meticulously considered design, Islyn transformed a large space into intimate pockets of discovery: Botanic, a hidden cocktail bar masquerades as a lush greenhouse apothecary slinging housemade tonics and local shrubs made from the bartender’s stash of drying herbs.
The Mercantile is the heartbeat of Sawmill Market, an artisanal food hall in Albuquerque. Inspired by a uniquely New Mexican ethos of open-armed hospitality — and the kitchens, pantries and living rooms that it’s borne from — The Mercantile is a testament to the abundant natural splendors and culinary prowess in The Land of Enchantment.
The home of the future Kimpton Kawana Bay hotel will be nestled into the cliff side of the powder white shores on Grand Anse Beach in the spice isle of the Caribbean. The guestroom interiors will offer tropical seclusion and sweeping views of turquoise waters against a soft, loungey, organic palette of natural materials.
