Real Agave is an upscale tequila bar and lounge, catering to downtown professionals from its 2,300 square foot location in the lobby of one of Houston’s most prominent high rises. The lighting and interior design were meant to be a visual shift from the corporate world outside the door with warm wood tones and lighting tucked discretely into millwork details. Accent lighting the bar and ceiling murals help evoke the spirit of old Mexico while keeping the modern vibe.
