Comme - Hecker Guthrie









A popular bistro, Comme Kitchen is open for lunch and dinner and offers a range of exciting French Bistro style dishes prepared by Executive Chef Daniel Southern.
Comme Bar features large communal tables and luxurious shared ottomans, a dedicated focus on premium wines from around the world and a delicious bar menu. It’s the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a relaxed drink with friends.
Upstairs at Comme, two separate and flexible rooms provide an elegant space for private dinners, cocktail parties, weddings and other special celebrations.
Comme – the bar, the events space, the kitchen – is nothing if not a statement of outrageously good taste on every level, complimented by its staff who deliver wonderful personalised service, of the highest standards.

Fabbrica Bergen - Tjep





After the succes of Fabbrica Rotterdam (completed in 2005) we were asked to design a second Fabbrica in the famous costal artist village of Bergen in The Netherlands. We revisited several of the original elements, for example the train cabins with a new look and feel, we like the concept for it's intimacy and romanticism for there is nothing more relaxing and engaging then enjoying a nice dinner on a train while looking at nice landscapes. This installation is lifted from the ground and suggests travel and movement. The large Pizza Oven covered with Bisazza tiles is an absolute eye-catcher and the very industrial wood containers hold all the wood to fuel the oven and all the electricity to fuel the lights! As for the general looks we decided to take a more earthly and less gloss and shine approach as compared to Fabbrica Rotterdam. In Bergen we show materials instead of using painted surfaces. We did this to be more in touch with the economic context of the moment. It's not time for Bling Bling anymore, people want more authenticity and less entertainment...

Pizza Express Richmond

We’ve set ourselves the challenge of reinventing our restaurants for a new era.
We’re experimenting with just about everything, from design and acoustics to service and food. Our mission? Not simply to continue to serve great pizza, but to help feed great conversations, something we believe has always been at the heart of our brand.
Following in the footsteps of our playful and eccentric founder Peter Boizot, we had no set ideas about what shape this project would take. Instead, we brought together a talented group of creative thinkers led by visionary designer Ab Rogers.
Their brief – not to lose what made PizzaExpress special but to build on it and give it a new twist. How? Through the theatre of traditional pizza making, light, colour, brilliant acoustics and a tantalizing menu.
And to top it all, we wanted a versatile environment that works well for families during the day, and everyone else at night.
