The Atkinson concept comes from the idea of creating an enveloping and warm space for Peabodys customers. Wood has been used on all surfaces; from floor to furniture such as tables and counter. Located in London, in the Atkinson Morley Wing of the St. George Hospital, the pilot project of the Peabodys group franchise develops an innovative approach to the idea of the coffee shop. Wood is the protagonist of the project; a number of boxes with a natural and sinuous geometry, parametrically distributed, descend from the ceiling hiding within the technical elements of the air conditioning and lights, and also ensuring greater efficient and acoustic comfort. The customer is embraced by the warmth of wood, a moder and minimal feel which is at the same time domestic and familiar. The same materials are also found on the main counter and on furniture accessories; benches and tables are designed by Modourbano for Peabodys and they configure the open space in small clusters with a well handled privacy.
