HUNT restaurant

"HUNT" is a new restaurant, which was opened on the place of an oriental kitchen. The concept has changed radically: there was no trace from the rich Chinese restaurant. It became an all new place, unique in content and based on natural motifs - both in the kitchen and in the interior. The restaurant combines three concepts that are reflected in interior solutions - bar with fresh seafood, gastronomic and meat dishes.   The name "HUNT" has been interpreted in interior design: natural motifs and materials prevail here. Space is full of wood, stone, leather, clay decor, an abundance of dry plants. Hunt is historically about strong people, the rough side of nature, harsh rocks and endless fields. And this is also the associations that r... More

London Atelier worked closely with the client team on all aspects of the project and carefully designed each element of the salon. The project is meticulously detailed and the execution was monitored closely by t... More

EMGC Offices, a real estate-investment firm

Aiming to create a peaceful and calm work environment for the employees, we designed a modern, minimal space for EMGC, a real estate firm. In order to design a flowing space, and due to the low ceilings in the original space, we decided to use glass partitions, with black metal frames. The company's archive is hidden in a sophisticated, customized closet system within the corridor walls, thus allowing a clean, spacious passage. The minimal design is featured by concrete floors combined with black outlines, oak custom-made furniture with gold details. In the waiting area, which is occasionally used for informal meetings, we placed a velvet sofa and stools, as well as a small marble top coffee table.   We like designing fun eating spac... More

BON a house and two extensions

The large farmhouse sits on a vast property on the outskirts of a village. It had recently undergone a clumsy renovation, which deformed the classic farmhouse archetype and the owners did not feel at home.   The living spaces were poorly proportioned and the many small windows sadly did not allow the access to the expansive lawns.   The relative lack of transparency to the outdoors caused a shortness of breath. The living space was long and narrow, typical of the farmhouse layout with significantly low ceilings. Scale and proportions of the building required readjustment.   The necessary addition of two extensions has offered a new utilitarian function to the pre-existing space and justified the creation of a central co...

Mid-Century Modern Revived

Set on the tallest dune in Quogue and overlooking both the Atlantic Ocean and Quantuck Bay,this restored mid-century modern house was originally designed in the early 1960s by architect Abraham Geller. Rooted in abstract expressionism, the 3,830 square-foot house evokes artist Piet Mondrian’s grid of black lines and primary colors as well as architect Le Corbusier’s exuberant butterfly roof design. Each section of the double-diamond façade includes a triangular portion pointing down which creates a central butterfly roof effect on the exterior and high ceilings and large water view windows on the inside. The large windows and vaulted ceiling let in natural light, creating an expansive central living room/dining room. &nb... More
