Tone at Canary Wharf

Hospitality — A Tone Commission

A hospitality concept, for the city working day

A bespoke hospitality concept inside a Canary Wharf development. Designed for the location, the audience the venue serves, and the trading regime specific to a city development of this kind.

The brief was distinctive: the customer is professional, time-pressured, and judges the venue against high-density city competition. The interior had to communicate quality before the first conversation began, support service at lunch peaks, and read different at evening trade. Every layer of the brief calibrated to those service patterns. A hospitality concept at the standard the location demands.

Walk YOUR home with Manong before a single thing is specified.

The Discovery is the first stage of every Tone Commission: a structured meeting at YOUR property or at the studio, where Manong walks YOUR brief with you and tells you plainly what she would do with the space. She is the designer on every Commission she takes, and the work is never handed to a junior. The Discovery is a paid stage, credited in full against the design fee if you both decide to go on, so YOU find out what YOU are dealing with either way.
