T.A.O
Wok ‘n’ Roll
Hartlepool
Value: £7.3 million
We were proud to collaborate on the transformation of an existing commercial unit into T.A.O, a striking Asian-inspired restaurant that blends bold contemporary design with traditional aesthetics. Over a year-long design journey, we worked closely with our clients to develop a space that enhances the culinary experience through immersive, sensory-led design.
The interior features a sculptural central bar, bespoke joinery, handcrafted feature walls, and a layered material palette of natural textures, rich wood tones, and ambient lighting. These elements create an atmosphere that is both intimate and theatrical, reflecting the depth and artistry of T.A.O’s menu. Fluid transitions between open and private dining areas support a versatile guest experience.
