Award-winning Designers Reveal Some Secrets Lying In Wait At Quill
| 27th October 2015
The award-winning design team behind Manchester’s newest exclusive fine dining restaurant and bar, Quill, have shared some secrets behind the interior of the hotly anticipated new venue.
There has been much speculation surrounding Quill since its official opening was announced just a few weeks ago, but now Collective Design, a specialist bar interior design company, has revealed some more information on what promises to be a truly exclusive city centre spot.
Collective Design, a northern based firm, is famed in the industry for providing bespoke interiors for the hospitality industry and previous projects have included Dr Feelgood’s in Sunderland, The Redhouse in Newcastle and The Newsroom in Edinburgh.
Now the firm has created something never seen before for the opening of Quill, in Manchester’s King Street – an area billed to become the Bond Street of the north.
Simon Mcilwraith, a past winner of the Interior Designer of the year 3years running at the Northern Design Awards, is heading up the project, which he has described as “stylish” , “bespoke” and “very high end”.
“We have really enjoyed working with the team on Quill, it promises to be a very high end venue with details that will surprise and delight customers,” said Simon.
“While we don’t want to give too much away at this stage we can say the design features a lot of bespoke elements that really tell a story following a theatrical style and relate closely to the concept of ink and the quill. Some of the aspects of the restaurant and bar are truly spectacular using materials that create an iridescent finish oozing luxury.
“I would describe it as contemporary utilising the best urban materials and a unique finish to create a really stylish venue”.
Other Features already revealed include first floor dining with an exclusive private dining area seating up to 21 people, an open kitchen giving diners the chance to see Head Chef Curtis Stewart and his team in action, a ground floor bar with cocktail stations and a cosmopolitan terrace area. The ground floor bar is truly the place to be seen.
The Restaurant will serve an A La Carte and 8-course Tasting Menu and the food has been described as modern British cuisine, with European influences.
Quill, which is the talk of Manchester, will open with a star-studded VIP night on Thursday October 29th before officially welcoming guests from Friday October 30th from 7pm.
The transformation of the King Street venue has cost more than £1.5 million and is the latest investment by On The Wall Group.
Chris Longmate, CEO of On The Wall, said the excitement was building as the opening night gets closer.
“The opening night of Quill will be a night to remember,” he said. “The interest and intrigue surrounding Quill is making the run up to the event all the more exciting and we can’t wait to see people’s reactions when they step inside the venue.”
