Location: London, UK
The glamorous restaurant, Bob Bob Ricard City, with it’s art deco inspired décor by leading interior designers Brady Williams is located in the Leadenhall Building, aka the Cheesegrater, in the heart of the City of London. Its city incarnation features Bob Bob’s signature ‘press for champagne’ buttons and will also boast London’s choice of 50 vintages of Armagnac, with one dating back to 1888, the year Dernier & Hamlyn started life.
Dernier & Hamlyn manufactured bespoke lighting for Bob Bob Ricard City’s sister restaurant Bob Bob Ricard in Soho so was the natural choice to deliver the quality and creativity required at restaurateur Leonid Shutov’s latest opening. Leonid said:
“This was an enormously challenging project – both in terms of design complexity and the sheer scale. We had worked with Dernier & Hamlyn long before this project and I knew that we could rely on them to deliver in every respect. I cannot imagine working with anyone else to create our 400-plus bespoke lights.”
Dernier & Hamlyn manufactured more than 400 light fittings including chandeliers, treadwell lighting, wall lights, table lamps and vanity unit lighting using luxury finished metals including solid brass, handpicked glass panels in gold, low iron, pink champagne waterglass and stainless steel all hand polished in Dernier & Hamlyn’s factory.
Dernier & Hamlyn’s craftsmen also made decorative gantries for the restaurant comprising square polished stainless steel tubing some 420m long and weighing in excess of half a tonne. This feature lighting gantry boasts 190 covers across two dining rooms and 50 more in its three private dining suites.
