The Clients Brief:

Our client is a cooking school based that provided a number of courses to prepare candidate for a professional career in food. Leiths also run short courses for the general public to improve cooking skills and there are courses on food writing and styling.

We were asked by the client to review their entire facility and look for opportunities to expand into the car park area at the rear and build in an existing lightwell. As part of the review considered upgrading of the old air supply and options for increasing the electrical capacity of the of the entire facility.

Following this review of the entire facility we gained planning permission to end the kitchen on the first floor into the existing lightwell. We then developed the design of a new Dining Area and a new fully fitted out commercial Kitchen in conjunction with Rob Cottam and Kitchen Architecture. Our role included a full interior design including the production of mood boards, joinery design, the design of an expanding table for the dining room for 14 people.

We helped the client select a builder and we managed the construction project to a successful conclusion.
