True to its namesake, dovecote is a structure intended to house pigeons or doves containing pigeonholes for the birds to nest. This modern day brasserie uses this architectural theme throughout the restaurant: on the walls to house wine, on the furniture elements and even the way the restaurant flows into an outdoor atrium resembles that of traditional dovecote structures.
