Viktor & Spoils was designed by DeVinn Bruce, whose previous projects includes CO-OP Food & Drink at the Hotel on Rivington as well as projects for Versace, Baccarat, Francis Ford Coppola, Jenifer Lopez, and Estee Lauder. Lower east side bodegas and beach towns in Mexico were the inspiration the space, which features a warm and neutral base palate with splashes of color and whimsical nods to urban Latino culture. Notable design elements include a 20’x10’x10’ foot display of Mexican sodas, reclaimed wood walls from a barn in Vermont, and bathrooms wallpapered in Mexican Pesos.
