Skylark

We overhauled a thriving business in a listed building, reconfiguring space and service to optimise capacity. The interior design draws inspiration from the natural beauty of Wandsworth Common.

We were brought in for our expertise in efficiency, service model development and interior fit-out. The space suffered from poor customer flow that was restricting takings and limiting its private hire potential. We proposed a radical new scheme which completely changed the service model as well as relocating the entire service point.

The interior design was strongly focused on complementing the setting and creating a space suitable for private hire and events. The calming, wholesome, and natural interior design is evident in the colour palette, finishes, and patterns selected throughout the space, resulting in a homely and slightly eclectic design scheme.

We carried out an extensive refurbishment of the building including replacing the entire rear of the sunroom with timber framed bifold doors, restoring a timber framed glazed gable end, and extensive toilet block reconfiguring and removing a large chimney breast. 

The interior is designed to exude a sense of joy and calmness, infused with subtle charm inspired by the natural surroundings of the park.

Adding a park cafe design to our portfolio was not just professionally rewarding, but the successful implementation of a new service model significantly increased capacity, broadened the menu, and elevated the private hire aspect of the business.

Following the construction phase, we moved to interior fit-out, fitting a custom counter with a built-in solid surface tray slide, bespoke bench seating, graphic implementation, remodelling the kitchen, installing a new cold room and supplying all interior FF&E. 

The result was a successful new service model which had a much higher capacity and allowed the owners to broaden the menu, improve service and push the private hire side of the business further.
