Dubai-based Studio EM have created a new concept for the internationally renowned and revered chef, Marco Pierre White. Emma Stinson, creative director and co-founder of Studio EM, says that the design for Marco’s New York Italian in the Fairmont Bab Al Bahar in Abu Dhabi is a nod to the bygone era of when going out for dinner was an event rather than a triviality. Marco’s New York Italian Abu Dhabi marks Studio EM’s first collaboration with the newly formed Black and White International and RMAL Hospitality.

It is the first Marco’s New York Italian internationally for renowned chef Marco Pierre White, as such Studio EM wanted to create a truly breathtaking space that combined the sophistication of Italian cuisine and style with the urban, artistic and dynamic vibes of 1920’s New York.
