Project Spotlight

Restoration of Pujo Street Cafe

Elite 360 had the opportunity to work with Mr. Dan the owner of Pujo Street Café to help make his vision a reality in the ball room of the Café. He explained what he wanted but was not sure of all the details but trusted our expertise here at Elite 360. We transformed the space right in time for the planned events he had scheduled. We brightened up the space going from a darker coating to a lighter coating making the space more open and neutral. Created and stained a custom triple crown molding to match existing stained Wayne Scott located in the Ball room for character, a perfect match. Mr. Dan wanted the masonry wall to free from the appearance of dark colored marking left over from the past fire that destroyed most of the building that wall remained. Elite 360 transformed the historical space right in time for the scheduled planned events. We had the opportunity to visit the space and while it was occupied the customers loved it and made their engagement that much more special. It always rewarding to accomplish or should I say over accomplish your client exceptions.
