Holland Harvey aimed to create an informal, playful setting from morning until night. Tactile, robust materials that exude warmth and softness have been chosen to complement the harder surfaces for which the building is known. Material choices explore themes of the circular economy, decarbonisation and social impact.
Collaborating with Holland Harvey to create the new furniture is Goldfinger, an award- winning social enterprise and design studio. It created a range of tables, benches and stools, which champion bold, contemporary design and purity of form, crafted by hand in the studio’s workshop at the foot of the Trellick Tower in West London. The pieces are made from local felled trees, including ash trees felled in Odiham to control the spread of ash dieback, celebrating circular design, and showcasing the beauty of Britain’s native timbers. Each piece of furniture bears the GPS
coordinates of where the original trees once stood.
Making tabletops and cake stands from Tate Eats coffee waste is Brighton-based Spared, a project championing a negative- waste model, supporting a notion: ‘There is no such thing as waste, only potential’. The team worked closely with Holland Harvey and Tate Eats throughout the sampling process to create unique colour combinations. Tate Eats sent coffee waste to the Brighton workshop and Spared started the process by baking the coffee at a low temperature to remove all the moisture before mixing it with shellfish waste and a mineral eco binder. Once the tabletops were completed, they were sent to Goldfinger who made beautiful trims from felled wood. Setting the ambience by delivering an adaptable lighting scheme that felt warm and inviting, There’s Light designed the bespoke decorative lighting taking great inspiration
