Vibrant Fairview
Formerly a 1960s dry cleaners, this reimagined building is now home to Vibrant, a restaurant featuring healthy ingredients located in the heart of Houston’s Montrose neighborhood. Envisioned as an “oasis for the community,” the restaurant’s architecture serves as a backdrop to its food and garden.

An exterior dining space nestles within a new courtyard carved out of the existing building. Inside, new openings in the walls bring in natural light, each framing a different garden experience. Banquettes create natural seating zones, and a coffee bar anchors the space, with the kitchen as the terminus. Food served in the restaurant is grown in a vegetable garden on site.
