This was our first collaboration with Nando’s. The project was a refurbishment of an existing Nando’s, the scope was extensive with all existing finishes and seating stripped out and a new layout and full design was created. The concept is based on the exploding woven patterns that exist within traditional fabrics and modern architecture. We used this as the base for redesigning the banquette shapes and fabrics, tile patterns, lighting concepts and ceiling and wall finishes. The result references the African heritage of Nando’s while incorporating elements of British design.
