How To Make Your Dining Room Feel Like the Publican

In this weekend’s Tribune, ink was spilled on how you can get your home to look exactly like The Publican. (That’s what you want, right?) The James Beard Award-winning restaurant design hinges on the tremendous quantity of low-hanging frosted globe lights, which designer Thomas Schlesser integrated in order to “create a more intimate space at the great rectangular table” which fills the center of the restaurant. “By using about four times the number one might normally see, it not only makes a cloud of light but also makes the effect more abstract,” Schlesser told the Trib. “The use of a common object repeated numerous times is a trick Pop artists used to great success.” To DIY, Schlesser suggests that you just, um, set up a whole bunch of lights.
