Marina Bay Café
MacDill AFB, Florida

Prepared complete plans and specifications for a $1.2 million Marina Bay Café on the beach in Florida. The in-house team put together an award winning design and went on to complete the construction of the facility.

The new Café is located on the beach between the Marina and the sailboat inlet. With open wood truss ceilings, wood patterned floor and a beach interior paint scheme, this is not your standard Air Force building. A weather vane tops the two-story cupola that is open to the restaurant’s interior. Special lighting and details at the bar and food service area bring the interior to life. A peaked wood ceiling runs the length of the building from the front door to the back door while a wood deck and canopies provide a view of the beach and the bay.
