'Salamander Design is best known for delivering hospitality projects that solve current client operational issues through design, as well as bringing a beautiful aesthetic. The two must work together. I am the project Creative Director, as well as the owner & founder of Salamander Design.
Operationally the client needed to go bigger, with more work space, a larger server counter and bigger seating capacity. Aesthetically, the materials were inspired by elements of the Buccleuch family’s estates. Including, a Versailles-style parquet to mirror the flooring in the state rooms of Boughton House, cane furniture as a nod the the Louis 15th chairs (seen through many of the homes) and bespoke joinery which seamlessly blends traditional and contemporary detailing.
Every finish that has been selected is hard wearing and easy to maintain for commercial use but also creates a beautiful aesthetic and blends seamlessly with the client’s existing Restoration Yard brand.
Being a commercial space in a family visitor destination that gets a lot of traffic, we knew we needed something robust and cleanable whilst not losing the hospitality look. That is why Agua was the perfect choice. The team are always positive, helpful and quick to respond. They are great at advising the best range for your project.'
