Pennethorne’s is a new cafe and bar located in the Somerset House, one of London’s large cultural institutions. The venue is named after Sir James Pennethorne, a highly-reputed architect of the 19th century. The design of the space was based on his discoveries during his travels through Europe which is why it is rich and dark.
The Dinner Club by No. 57 was a popular concept that started back in 2012 by Buthaina Al Mazrui & Alamira Noor Bani Hashim, based on the concept of ‘invitation only’ pop up restaurant/ event place. There was no particular location for those monthly events. Due to popularity of the concept, No.57 Cafe Boutique came to life. Located in Abu Dhabi and designed by Dubai based architects Anarchitect, the owners want to make sure to keep it the place alive and still have the secret dining room for special events.
Materials used were mainly the timeless Carrara marble, concrete, oak, and metal.
