B3 Designers conceptualised and designed Lita, a modern Mediterranean bistro located in the heart of Marylebone, London.

Located a few steps from Trafalgar Square in London, Nutshell serves Iranian cuisine with a modern twist.;

There is a heavy focus on curated art throughout, with custom abstract pieces conceptualised with Iranian architecture and culture in mind.

Our design celebrated the geometry and colours of Iran. Looking at the traditional architecture of the country, with arches and soft curves, we replicated this in the design of banquettes and feature mirrors on the walls.

We drew from the country’s connection to pistachio orchards, and the greens and pinks of the fields and the nut itself. The space balances these traditional details with modern touches such as blackened steel, and a sense of pared-back simplicity.

Nutshell, London

An elegant modern bar with an impressive back bar display is the focal point to our bar design. Warm white timber and mild steel-framed bar stools and chairs are clustered around low marble dining tables, promoting a casual all-day F&B experience. Throughout the bar and restaurant, we designed an abundance of planting to be hung at multiple heights, optimising the architecture of the space and creating a lush complement to the simplicity of our modern design.

Our experience with B3 was amazing. You took the job on short notice and you worked around our schedule without compromising the design. All we did was to give you the inspiration and the team just ran with the idea and created an amazing restaurant that we keep getting compliments for. And, the fact that it's already on the list of most beautiful restaurants in London for 2019 is just beyond our expectations.
