ABOUT THE PROJECT
The second location under the Mistral brand umbrella, Mistral KOP is a chef driven restaurant concept at the King of Prussia mall. Four-time James Beard semifinalist, Scott Anderson, will continue to oversee the Princeton and King of Prussia locations. Different than the typical mall dining experience, Mistral’s exterior and interior designs combined with the seasonal, local menu are set to introduce a dynamic culinary experience to the area. Found throughout the project are diverse examples of reSAWN products: WABI SABI shou sugi ban exterior siding, GOVERNOR european white oak flooring, and custom stairs designed to match the flooring.
Eimer Design, out of Philadelphia, designed the exterior and interior of the new restaurant. When considering Mistral’s culinary style, the selection of WABI SABI shou sugi ban charred exterior siding is clear because of the siding’s durability, FSC® certification, and extended product life cycle. Additionally, the shou sugi ban exterior siding stands out from the rest of the mall’s neutral colored facade.
