Commercial Architecture
Building Design Northern provide architectural and project management services to the Swedish Cafe/Restaurant and Bakery, Söderberg, for the creation and refit of their stores.
We are responsible for all their current and upcoming Cafe/Restaurant and Bakery refits across London, with the most recent being their central hub of operations in East Dulwich, which functions as a central bakery, supplying all future locations throughout London.
BDN created and submitted plans to Southwark Council for the internal fit-out, shopfront and external signage, at their new East Dulwich store. The design concept behind the refit at East Dulwich was to strip the large unit back to its structure, utilising those raw materials, such as red brick, concrete, and timber, effectively, alongside exposed M&E works to provide a contemporary industrial aesthetic.
Close liaison with both the Planning and Building Control departments of Southwark Council was key to achieving approval for the planning and building works.
The East Dulwich store successfully opened in March 2023.
