Client : NoChintz
Business : Food + Beverage
Location : Northern Quarter, Manchester
SQM : 325
Completed : 2015

Built from the grounds up.

As owners, designers and operators, NoChintz continually work on developing this brand, creating destinations through curated menus, events and experiences since 2015.

Drawing from Manchester’s Victorian industrial heritage and architectural features of the building, FDN NQ features a range of tiled surfaces, a colourful ceiling installation and industrial lighting.

Our concept also draws upon the motif of architectural and engineering references, which features in our own NoChintz branding guideline but expanded here to reflect the values of ‘engineered coffee’, which is precisely and meticulously prepared using a range of specialist equipment. This equipment is drawn in an architectural style and features on our main windows to Lever Street, set up as drawing boards. The concept of engineering is taken through to fine detailing bespoke branded brass ruler on the bar height benches.
