Tria Taproom

Philadelphia, PA

TRIA Taproom reinvents the classic tap house as an intimate, 1,400 SF, 65-seat

restaurant located in Philadelphia’s lux Rittenhouse Square neighborhood.

Designers carved away the existing space to reveal the rich texture of the historic

building fabric, exposing brick, plaster, and a large window to naturally light the bar.

Blackened steel bar wrap, wood clad banquets and custom-fabricated light fixtures

were added to slide and fold through the space, creating a juxtaposition of strong yet

warm, industrial yet comfortable. The bar is the heart of the space; a dramatic contrast

of blackened steel and white Carrera marble highlights the wall of taps.
