Our client’s brief:
As part of the complete design and fit-out for a 5-star VIP visitor accommodation at The Balvenie, we created a warm and inviting snug and lounge area — a refined retreat that showcases natural materials and handcrafted detail. A standout feature is the use of the client’s own elm, sourced from end-of-life trees on site, giving the space a deep personal and environmental connection. Designed to accommodate and delight visitors from around the world, the fully bespoke interior reflects The Balvenie’s deep-rooted commitment to traditional methods and artistry.
