FOCUS 45 Project
Denton Hall, North
Yorkshire
NEWLY OPENED in London’s Canary Wharf is a location for Scottish brand House of Gods. Featuring 79 opulent rooms and suites that follow the intimate, design-led spirit of House of Gods Edinburgh and House of Gods Glasgow, the new London property promises the same immersive glamour, but on a grander scale.
Right The studio was briefed to rethink luxury hospitality for a new generation
BOX 9 HAS RESTORED and redesigned Te Hall, a Grade I listed Georgian stately home. Box 9’s intervention began with conservation work, restoring and stripping back to reveal the original architecture. Te team worked within the existing layout, designing bathrooms and freestanding furniture as sculptural insertions, avoiding fixed partitions or built-in joinery that would compromise original sightlines. Sculptural surfaces in every room are thoughtfully considered, from cabinetry made from 100% post-consumer plastic by Smile Plastics (now Smile Materials), to marble and travertine side tables by Atelier278, to Jan Hendzel’s transformation of the old marquetry boardroom table into a new games room centrepiece. In the gothic panelled kitchen, Box 9 inserted a monolithic steel island and chocolate Valchromat joinery to rebalance the room. At its centre sits an oak dining table designed by Ted Jeffries from a fallen ancient oak from the estate.
From hand-aged oak floors pressed by Te Main Company to art commissions by emerging talents and established artists, every design element was chosen for its story, its sustainability, and its ability to contribute to an inclusive future. Paints are textured with crushed olive stones; basins are cast from 75% recycled concrete. And cork – the project’s hero material – is used boldly, from cladding to furniture elements.

Permit Room Lodgings, London
Right Throughout the lodgings, more than 30 original art pieces have been used
THE LATEST Permit Room from Indian restaurant Dishoom has launched in Notting Hill. Design studio Macaulay Sinclair’s choices blend the ambiance of Bombay’s mid-century permit rooms and the affordable drinks of its modern quarter bars with the warmth and atmosphere of the classic British pub. Te lodgings consist of a two-bed residence, complete with ensuite rooms and a lounge with a dining area. Influences have been taken from the elegant designs of celebrated Bombay hotels, such as with the bespoke beds, the paneling and vibrant hues. Te ground floor bar café features comfortable and cosy pockets of space, while distinctive elements include perforated plywood back bench seating, timber boarded floors, and natural rattan blinds. On the first floor, a dining room space features a pair of bespoke mid-century modern chandeliers, while parquet flooring layered with rugs create warmth and texture, and full-height curtains adorn the large Victorian windows.

Te hotel also features Sacred Garden, a 300-capacity rooftop bar and restaurant providing a moment to soak in the skyline and sweeping views over Eden Dock.
