Steal This Look: Highlands Gastropub in New York

From Julie December 1, 2009

When owners Brian McGrory, Mary Wan, and Donal Brophy designed the interiors of Highlands, their new gastropub in the West Village, they called on contemporary Scottish designers such as Timorous Beasties, Anta, and Glasgow-born painter Gerald Burns to create a modern hunting lodge ambience. According to McGrory, "We are all Scottish owned, the chefs are Scottish, there's a real sense of authenticity in Highlands. Recreate the look with the elements shown below.

Large English Pheasant Wallpaper at Remodelista

Above: Large English Pheasant Wallpaper; £123 per roll directly from Timorous Beasties.

Kensington Leather Sofa at Remodelista

Above: The Kensington Leather Sofa is based on the classic Chesterfield sofa by Timothy Oulton and is upholstered in distressed vintage cigar leather with hand-hammered brass studs and down-blend cushions; $3,995 at Restoration Hardware.

Acorn Lantern at Remodelista

Above: The Acorn Lantern is handmade in Berkeley, CA, by architect-owned Metro Lighting & Crafts and is made of solid brass (available in several finishes) with a choice of glass shades; $540.

Papa Stour Scottish Antlers at Remodelista

Above: Papa Stour, an online purveyor of  Scotish crafts and decorative items, collects and sells Scottish Antlers "from the majestic red deer that roam the highlands of Scotland; if we didn't retrieve these antlers, they would go to landfill." The Scottish Antlers are £94 each.

Anta Fabrics at Remodelista

Above: Edinburgh-based, family-owned Anta sells updated tartan patterns in wool or linen; prices start at £54 per meter. At Highlands, the chairs are upholstered in the Moniak pattern.

Above: The owners of Highlands propped a vintage mantel against a brick wall; try architectural salvage shops such as Architectural Antiques for similar pieces.

I love the new look of Restoration Hardware. Especially the new furniture. I am a big fun of Chesterfield sofas. For custom sizes and leathers in authentic British Chesterfield I also like Chesterfield NYC in the meatpacking www.chesterfieldnyc.com

Where can I find a tufted booth like in the second picture? I would love to recreate that look for my dining room!

Quite a place, its very classy and masculine at the same time.

Does anyone know where you can get those chairs? The ones in the first picture. I would guess they are vintage, but they seem to have quite a few of them. Any ideas???
