Restaurant Management features J. Black’s Houston grand opening celebration.

J. Black’s Feel Good Kitchen & Lounge held its grand opening yesterday in Houston. The location, along with stores in Dallas and Austin, Texas (as well as a location set to open in Fort Worth, Texas, by the end of the year), was designed by Randall Owen of Hatch + Ulland Owen Architects (h+uo). The newest location for the upscale restaurant and lounge concept is in the heart of Houston’s Washington corridor. It opened quietly in June, preparing for the grand opening.

In 2008, h+uo Partner, Erik Ulland spent some time redesigning his previous home in Central Austin. One of the special elements of his design was featured in this week’s Houzz.com article on sunrooms.

The design included four folding glass doors that open with the touch of a hand to create an opening 12 feet wide by 8 feet tall.

Erik’s design allowed for the main interior living space to flow into the sunroom effectively doubling the living space. The goal was to bring the outside in to create an al fresco dining area protected from biting mosquitoes and the Austin heat.
