Café One is a popular, organic California cuisine restaurant in Fort Bragg, California. Operating for 25 years on North Highway One in a rented space, owners Andrea & Miguel wanted their own place, and purchased the former Piedmont Hotel lot on the corner of Main & Oak in Fort Bragg. 

Debra worked with designer Jordan Boudreau to design the new Café One using 3D modeling, and multiple consultants. This extensive team effort culminated in a new, 2 story restaurant with ocean views upstairs, a vegetated dining roof deck, a bar open with a 16’ NanaWall opening to the patio with a Living Wall and modern, efficient kitchen.

The site was designed with permeable pavers in the courtyard, a bioswale in the parking lot, stormwater collection planters, vegetated roof & pollinator friendly landscaping. Murals along the street side connect art and architecture to the community by supporting the Alleyway Artwork project that encompasses the entire downtown of Fort Bragg, creating a cultural opportunity for visitors and locals alike.

Consultants include: Dave Castino, kitchen consultant; MR Studio, interiors; SHN Engineering, civil; David Duncan, structural; Warner Engineering, mechanical; SoCo Engineering, electrical; Craig Williams, CASp.
