Carmel Mission Inn is a boutique hotel located in California’s picturesque Carmel-by-the-Sea. The extraordinary natural setting and Bohemian art scene of Carmel serve as the inspiration behind the all-new common areas, including the exterior courtyard, lobby, outdoor pool terrace, and the hotel’s recently opened California pub, Shearwater Tavern. Arcsine placed particular emphasis on distinctive yet natural local materials such as: chevron wood floors, hand-crafted tiles, shiplap detailing, and the use of caning to create a cottage-like feeling reminiscent of the storybook setting found in downtown Carmel. 

A retro 1970s-inspired host stand and entry features custom millwork with caning and a working record player welcomes guests to the Inn’s completely reimagined 88-seat gastropub. In the main dining room, a classic geometric tile flooring expands the space while heavy-set natural walnut beams add an element of movement to the ceiling. A retractable clouded glass door allows a more intimate private dining experience within the main dining room. The custom brass light fixtures serve as the centerpiece of the adjacent lounge area, illuminating the Crossville Cava Nero Greco top counter and upholstered leather-like chairs resting on the unique mosaic floor pattern.
