Hogwash

Ft Myers, FL - 2024 I 1900sqft

Hogwash in Fort Myers is a contemporary interpretation of the classic speakeasy—lush, moody, and unashamedly theatrical. The interior blends Art Deco sophistication with modern sensuality, transforming the historic 1908 building into a sultry, design-forward hideaway. The renovation preserved the original brick walls and century-old flooring, allowing the patina of the past to anchor a palette of polished metals, deep reds, glossy blacks, and warm ambient light. The bar serves as the glowing centerpiece, wrapped in rich finishes and framed by intimate seating zones that invite lingering conversation. Dramatic lighting—often in the red spectrum—creates a savory, cinematic mood that defines the guest experience from the moment they enter.

Unique rooms such as the “Mile High Club” elevate Hogwash’s narrative with a sense of escapism and indulgence. Plush textures, saturated color, and a bold floral mural interplay with neon art and sculptural lighting to craft a highly atmospheric private lounge. Velvet seating, mirrored accents, and layered materials bring tactile richness that echoes the venue’s speakeasy-meets-Deco spirit. Throughout the space, the design balances modern glamour with historic character, resulting in an environment that feels both timeless and provocative—an upscale destination where Fort Myers nightlife finds its most stylish, immersive expression.
