Curves and Tiers in Hospitality banner

The newly opened Seven, a fine dining restaurant in Christchurch, has been named hospitality interior of the year at the 2022 NZ Interior Awards. Designed by Semi Creative, the restaurant on the 7th floor overlooking the Port Hills features curves, leather, wood and layers.

Florentine Walnut from the Prime Laminate Benchtop range has been used throughout the creative space. The most notable is the tiered bar at the head of the restaurant. The Florentine Walnut HPL has been curved around the corners of the bar, tying in with the soft timber and leather seating areas, while standing out as a feature with the tiered design.

The durability of HPL makes it a fantastic choice for high traffic areas such as hospitality.
