Amy Morton’s Newest Restaurant!

“Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.” – Dr. Suess

“There comes a time when the only thing that helps is a glass of champagne”- Betty Davis

“If you can afford to eat here you can afford to wear anything you want”- Arnie Morton

Just a few of the quotes painted on the ceiling at Amy Morton’s newest restaurant, Stolp Island Social located in Aurora, IL which are intended to spark conversation.

You might recognize the Morton name from the generations of this family that have been dedicated to the art of food and hospitality including Morton’s Steakhouse and many other fine dining venues.

CCB’s product was well curated with banquette and table configurations designed to suite each area of the space.  Similar to the menus and the chefs selected by the Morton family. 

CCB’s “Metropolitan” and CCB’s “Designer Special” series were modified and used to create these seating configurations.  CCB’s Random Plank Solid Ash Wood Table tops in CCB Driftwood stain was also used.

Thank you to Amy Morton, Henry’s Contract Seating, and our CCB Sales Representative, Paul Johnopolos for the opportunity to be a part of this project.

Craftsmanship & Artistry – Canon & Draw Brewing Co.

We love to share projects where the end user has the same philosophy as CCB.
 
Canon & Draw Brewing Co. located in Richmond, VA in the historic fan district prides itself on the “craftsmanship and artistry” of their beers. They have created an environment for their customers to pause and savor life.
At CCB, we pride ourselves in crafting our handmade products in the USA for the enjoyment and longevity of use by others.  We have our own building blocks and just like the basis of craft beers that we use to re-invent and create product for each new project.
For this project the CCB “Shop Special” was the basis with a few custom options to create this look.
 CCB’s “Shop Special” series- modified
  • Wood Top Caps & End Panels- added
  • Diamond Tufted ISB (inside back) – added
  • Wood OSB (outside back) – added
  • Uph 1 Piece “Big Seat”
“U” Shaped Booths were ganged together with shared top caps and end panels to create a unified look for all 3 of the banquettes.
Thank you to Campfire & Co. and our CCB Sales Representative, Jim Hoffman for the opportunity to be a part of this project.

Banquette Seating inspired by Chesterfield – SW Clyborne

The Chesterfield sofa is quite an icon of the furniture design world. The story goes that the origin may date back to the 1700’s to Lord Phillip Stanhope, the fourth Earl of Chesterfield. The Earl wished to have a piece of furniture to sit up very straight, in the upmost comfort, and not crease ones garments as they sat. With those concepts in mind, he commissioned a local crafts person and the furniture style and name was born.

CCB produced a custom banquette inspired by a “Chesterfield” sofa for
SW Clyborne Co. located in Mason, OH including all of the classic details: wide roll over back and arms, diamond tufting, loose seat cushions, and wooden legs. Bolsters were specified to create dividers in the seating areas.

Other areas of the restaurant included bar height and dining height banquettes based on CCB’s “Designer Special” series modified with vertical channel uph and was produced in long wall benches, “U” shaped, and 3/4 rounds.

How’s that for being inspired by furniture history?

Thank you to C & T Design & Equipment and to our CCB Sales Representative, Warren Dorn for the opportunity to be a part of this project.

“CCB’s Playing with Fire”- New Product Intro.

We are always working to develop new product lines that will entice our customers and will capture the design and and style trends.
CCB’s playing with Fire- “Charred Ash”…………….
 
We have pulled our inspiration from:
  • Charred wood barrels used for the distilling of whiskey & wine
  • “Shou-Sugi-Ban”- a style of fire finishing technique used in Japanese Architecture
  • The use of natural materials with a sensitivity to elements & their environment
  • Capturing rustic & industrial looks

 

 

       

 

We are excited to introduce a New Wood Table Top:

CCB’s “Charred Ash” Solid Wood Table Tops
CCB’s Charred Wood Table Tops are made of random plank solid Ash in a 1.25″ thickness.  A flame and heat source are applied to the wood tops to  create a darkening and burnishing effect that emphasizes the grain of the Ash wood.  After this “Charring” process, a high solids catalyzed conversion varnish is applied to preserve the transformed look of the wood.
 
CCB’s “Charred Ash” is a light to medium technique which emphasizes and darkens
 the Natural Grain Patterns while still maintaining the lighter appearance of the solid Ash wood. 
 
There will be some variation on each table top due to the individual wood plank characteristics as well as the charring process which will be applied by hand at CCB.  

Please contact your CCB Sales Representative to see their sales panel in person.

We hope that this will light a “FIRE” to your Projects!

CCB’s Hospitality Seating – Not just your Standard Banquette

CCB originated as a restaurant booth and table manufacturing company primarily servicing restaurant dealers.  As our customer base and project scope has expanded, we have embraced your requests to produce product that is far beyond the realm of “booth” seating.

Seating produced for Hotel Indigo in Birmingham, AL is a perfect example of this.

Custom Shaped Hospitality Seating
  • Plain uph low ISB & uph shaped arms
  • Loose accent throw pillows
  • Tight uph deep seats
  • Stained wood frame & enclosed base with electrical outlets
  • Custom stain color

This Hotel Indigo location has history as well.  This area was the location of the first apothecary in Birmingham.  This Art Deco inspired building from the 1930’s was constructed to house medical offices.

The “RX Lounge” where CCB’s seating is located gives a nod to the architectural history.

Thank you to Hospitality Furnishings & Design and our CCB Sales Representatives, Warren Dorn & Jay Dickinson for the opportunity to be a part of this project.

We think this is a good example of a Remedy to standard seating.
