01
Can we keep trading while you build?
We phase the works around service, events and fixtures, so the rest of the venue keeps earning. LEVEL1 was built inside a live football stadium.
Hospitality & restaurants
We create beautiful hospitality spaces.
Welcoming, high-quality spaces for hotels, restaurants, bars and leisure venues, delivered to programme so you open on time.
Trusted by Southampton FC
Rooms people remember
Rooms people remember
Atmosphere is everything. Guests feel a room before they notice a single detail.
We plan layout, bars, kitchens and service points around how you earn, from the Friday rush to a quiet Monday, then deliver to the date you've promised your guests.

FAQs
Hospitality fit-out questions, answered
Can we keep trading while you build?
Yes. We phase the works around service, events and fixtures, so the rest of the venue keeps earning. LEVEL1 was built inside a live football stadium.
Do you design the interior as well as build it?
Yes. Our in-house team designs around your guests, your brand and how you trade, and we're equally happy delivering alongside your appointed designers. Most clients choose one accountable team.
Can you deliver the kitchen, bar and M&E?
Yes, in-house. Our Wormwood Scrubs restaurant fit-out, M&E included, ran on schedule and on budget.
Do you refurbish hotels while they stay open?
Yes. Guest rooms, reception, bars and back-of-house are phased so guests keep checking in. We can also add hotel bedroom and bathroom pods built offsite.
How do you make sure we open on time?
We agree scope, cost and programme up front, order long-lead items early, and one SMSTS-certified project manager runs the job around your trading, events and fixtures.
