Martin Brudnizki Design Studio was asked to design Hartnett Holder & Co, the restaurant at Lime Wood Hotel in the heart of the New Forest National Park. 

The restaurant is a collaboration between Michelin-starred Chef Angela Hartnett and Lime Wood’s Chef, Luke Holder. The design took inspiration from the building’s Regency architecture and from the restaurant’s locally sourced, simple dishes.

The Studio introduced a dark stained, oak panelled bar topped with an Irish green marble to the dining space alongside bespoke furniture upholstered in rough linens and patterned fabrics to bring an unpretentious sense of English eccentricity.
