8 Outstanding Projects by BAR Studio
Led by Felicity Beck and Stewart Robertson, the studio is best known for not having a signature look necessarily, but by allowing the character of each destination to inform its creative direction. This results in interiors that feel distinctive, sophisticated, and firmly connected to their surroundings.
What sets BAR Studio apart is the balance it strikes between the experiential and the practical. Its designers consider how a space will be encountered, used, and remembered, while operational expertise ensures that the finished environment performs as beautifully as it looks. Each project reveals something new, combining atmosphere and functionality in equal measure.
