Case Study: Claro launches an intimate St James’s dining experience with DesignLSM

Claro opens first international restaurant in a 7,793 sq ft Grade II listed site with DesignLSM

The Eastern Mediterranean restaurant group Claro faced the challenge of launching its first international venture in a prestigious, Grade II Listed historic building in Central London. They engaged the interior design vendor DesignLSM to create a sophisticated restaurant design that would honor the site's heritage while establishing a modern, intimate dining destination.

DesignLSM delivered a solution that juxtaposed modern finishes like timber, leather, and steel with the building's traditional heritage architecture. The design centered around an open kitchen to create a socially engaging and dynamic guest experience, bringing the austere space to life. The result was a dramatic and intimate venue that celebrates communal dining, successfully establishing Claro's new international flagship location.
