F&B
Modern Rustic Dining
Cottage

Cottage was designed as a refined neighbourhood restaurant that combines warmth, texture, and contemporary detailing. Sage-green statement counters, exposed timber beams, curated artwork, and soft brass lighting create a dining experience that feels inviting, layered, and modern.
The challenge
Deliver a strong brand read from the street while keeping the interior calm enough for long dwell times — and coordinate F&B equipment, MEP, and joinery in a tight envelope.
Our approach
We led with material hierarchy: one hero counter colour, repeated wood grain direction, and lighting layers that separate service drama from dining comfort.
Modern rustic dining
Cottage reads as a refined neighbourhood restaurant: sage-green monolithic counters, heavy timber ceiling beams, and a gallery wall of curated art — balanced with patterned banquettes, tiled inlays, and warm brass lighting.
