Nando’s Walthamstow

Description

Fast becoming one the most popular quick service restaurants on the high street with their famous chicken dishes, Nando's restaurants are also recognisable for their wildly imaginative design, interesting fixtures, fittings and art displays, and from location to location, their totally bespoke ambience and mood.

Tiles Used

Solus supplied high quality, hand squeezed bespoke tiles from the rustic Distinct range.

Outcome

The London eatery designed by moreno:masey architecture studio, is one of the many Nando’s projects that Solus have supplied tiles to. The aim for the designers was to create a warm, welcoming and bustling restaurant that would stand out within the development amongst its competitors. At Nando’s Walthamstow, which is located within the bustling town centre at Cleveland Place, Solus supplied a range of beautiful, handmade tiles from the Distinct range.

This range is a stunning collection of clay tiles, formed with pure, high quality clay and hand squeezed using traditional techniques. Therefore, each tile is completely unique and will feature inimitable movement and delicate imperfections. The Distinct range consists of 12 charming pastel inspired colours including a fresh sage green, a pretty, rosy peach and a chalky grey.

In this Nando’s restaurant the tiles were laid on the floor in an interesting herringbone design in alternating colours- creating a beautiful striped effect. These fascinating, rustic tiles perfectly complement the undulating ceiling and other zigzag features located throughout the space. Crucially the tiles achieve a 36+ wet shodfoot PTV rating, which is the standard for Nando’s restaurants.
