Dinner Is Served

We are thrilled to unveil a dining room inspired by the essence of Cucciolo Terrazza for the SPEC house— a conceptual digital home designed and inspired by the local businesses that we know and love here in Raleigh.

Cucciolo Terrazza’s ambiance, characterized by chic vibrancy and genuine hospitality, serves as the muse for Noble Studio's design concept. The dining room will evoke feelings of elegance and excitement, offering guests an immersive experience reminiscent of the restaurant's lively atmosphere.

The ivory resin dining table serves as a centerpiece, inviting guests to gather and indulge in a dining experience that is both memorable and enjoyable.

Elevation

Compelled by our obsession with creating a sense of place and mood rather than just making a pretty room, we are endlessly pursuing the alchemical magic that comes from turning thousands of technical decisions into something profound.
