Designed to evoke a comfortable “living room” vibe, Front & Main is an elevated farm-and-sea-to-table restaurant concept serving as the central gathering hub for the Lockwood Hotel and owner Colby College. Materials and furnishings were specifically selected to reflect Colby’s deep Maine roots, and the neutral palette lets the work of local artisans and makers – curated by the College’s renowned art museum – shine. Layering of wood, stone, leather, and cotton in the space nods to Waterville’s long history of garment manufacturing and the site’s previous home as a clothing atelier.
