Charleston, SC
Paolo’s Gelato, a downtown Charleston staple since 2003, got its start in Atlanta. When the owner approached us for a revamp of their brand and tiny gelato shop, we were up to the challenge! We also accepted some payments in the form of gelato. :)
The project was filed under the shop’s new name Paolo’s Gelato and Gourmet. The addition of “gourmet” to their name signifies the diversification of their offerings to now include food and even wine. The goal was to create more of an Italian dining experience with glass refrigerated displays that also serve as a gathering place for your food and drinks. The shop also wants to be the go to place for lunch in the area and a nightcap after a show.
The addition of new equipment in such a petite space took some time with space planning and organization with a lot of wall storage. We coordinated the equipment, chose new finishes, revamped the kitchen layout and upgraded the lighting fixtures for a completely new space and design, and we can’t wait to see the outcome!
