Charlie Palmer at The Joule Dallas, Texas. Located in the heart of one of America’s most dynamic cities, The Joule is one of Dallas’s most stylish and contemporary hotels. Adam D. Tihany conceived the 129-room boutique hotel, rooftop pool, and public spaces with effortless elegance, putting The Joule in a unique class of its own. Jules Verne’s Journey to the Center of the Earth is the inspiration behind the design concept. This idea, paired with the rich patina of Texan culture and energy, results in a sensuous hospitality experience.

Famed Chef Charlie Palmer teams up with Tihany Design bringing his cuisine to his first restaurant in Dallas. Continuing with the underlying energy theme of the hotel, the restaurant pays homage to the wind as a sustainable energy source. A series of six slowly moving “wind turbines,” situated within coved light sources, spin from above and give a sense of tranquility to the room. The specially commissioned collection of six art pieces inspired by iconographic wind themes from popular literature and cinema, create a modern, surreal edginess to directly engage the imaginations of the diners. These original art pieces, by New York-based artist Bram Tihany, are a sleek contrast to the room’s design.
