At its core, the physical space of Republic NOLA is a balanced dichotomy of old & new; a historic warehouse that has been revived with modern amenities, allowing guests to experience a piece of the past with the technology of today. The vintage hand-painted murals, original wooden beams, and stunning chandeliers are juxtaposed by state-of-the-art sound, lighting and video systems to create a unique, one-of-a-kind atmosphere. The venue's duality is further emphasized through design choices that attune the more masculine, industrial elements like dark wood, concrete floors, and chesterfield leather couches with more feminine, opulent accents like crystal chandeliers, sleek white subway tile backsplashes, and shiny copper/brass details. The bi-level layout completes the theme of duality and balance by creating two separate, yet fully interconnected spaces.
