Project Brief

The owners wanted to create an all-day dining venue that commanded presence, while retaining serious pub credentials. The primary focus was a top quality and inventive dining experience within a pub, and the job required a swift five-month turnaround.
 

Response to Brief

The tight timeframe for the project meant that WEBB+ had to work with efficient and productive partners to achieve the high level of quality they envisioned in the Botanical’s design. The intention was to create a design that was neither funky nor fashionable, but rather timeless and warm.

In terms of finishes and aesthetics, the approach was simple, using a rich palette of finishes with consistency between areas. Dark timbers are offset by black steel, pressed glass light fittings and pale walls. Warm leather and richer tones create intimacy in the dining room, while the conservatory (Archer Room) is lighter and brighter with an outdoor feel. The rear main bar is sturdy with strong detail and opens onto a bright terrace area in monochromatic tones. Dark oak floors run throughout the areas, unifying the design.
 

Architectural Door Hardware Solution

The door hardware was required to fit into the classic styling with simple, bold shapes and a robust but elegant design. Specifying  from Designer Doorware before, WEBB+’s Designers knew our wide range of door furniture and special finishes were perfectly suited to this bespoke design.  The use of Black Chrome with its black lustre and mirror effect, gave an opulent, signature finish to complement the overall design.
