A sand-covered dining space with rusted teal metal walls and chain-link openings looks onto a desert, where steel tables decorated with Route 66 signs and wire chairs sit beside a burning barrel stove with a copper flue. Torn canvas tarps hang from the ceiling as smoke drifts upward, while an illuminated glass-door refrigerator, rolling metal carts, and industrial railings complete the gritty, post-apocalyptic scene.
