Gerald’s is the brainchild of Chef DK Kolender in collaboration with Conner Mitchell and Dina O'Connor of Dudley Market; bringing fun and nostalgia back into the dining experience. Hosted at Woon, a homestyle Chinese restaurant that began as a family run pop-up born from a desire to share owner Keegan Fong’s mother, Mama Fong’s original Chinese comfort food.
Curated by Corner Booth for LA Design Weekend, Gerald’s at Woon Kitchen is a celebration of the convergence of design, food and experience. Founded by Carolyn Schneider, Corner Booth is a creative hospitality agency that builds hotel and hospitality brands.
For LA Design Weekend, the Woon menu is transformed and the dining room is subtly modified to capture the Gerald’s spirit. Designed to complement the food experience, the team collaborated with RAD Furniture to customize a color way of Duo dining stools. A checkerboard pattern of electric-tomato paired with a cream tone create an impactful punch of color, that brings a new look to the restaurant while feeling inherent to Woon’s existing design. In addition, Corner Booth collaborated with artist Jaclyn Rusher-Mendoza (Trash Gurl Treasures) to customize two RAD Furniture bar height stools for the dining room. These pieces are upholstered in handstitched salvaged fabrics, and woven into a quilted textile. The fabric resembles organic shapes, born out of Rusher-Mendoza's daily practice of photographing tree shadows and recreating them in fabric form. Read more about this collaboration HERE.
Join us for a special a la carte lunch menu whilst bopping around LA Design Weekend activations.
