We created a flagship gin bar and restaurant for the English winemaker, Chapel Down. Comprising two cocktail bars, the spaces refelcted the scientific and theatrical process of making gin though the mix of metallic materials, and tactile soft furnishings. 

Working closley with joiners and operators, the designs of the bars enabled staff to produce cocktails for customers in a performative manner, engaging with their audience under decrotative pendant lights, or an upturned copper bathtub-come-feature light. 

The history of gin informed elements of the interior design, the intrepid gin drinker is introduced to a bar that is also a library of dried botanicals stored in laboratory flasks, creating a cocktail of floral, herbal and grassy aromas, and which are used during gin production in varying quantities and combinations to create unique signature flavours.
