It's been a pleasure to support the Jan Hendzel studio with their latest project. Located in the energetic inner-city hub of Bethnal Green, Town Hall Hotel has partnered with the London-based furniture designers/makers to transform two of the property’s suites to create a gallery-come-living space aiming to stimulate creative interaction.

Previously the Bethnal Green Town Hall, the Grade ll listed building was reborn as the Town Hall Hotel in 2010. Design-led with many artistic touches, it is a feast for the eyes throughout. In keeping with the hotel’s core ethos, it has historically worked with local brands and supported the community through various partnerships and events. This collaboration with Jan Hendzel Studio is not only an extension of this, but arguably one of the hotel’s largest projects to date. It will also act as the first of many future collaborations with other likeminded, neighbourhood brands to build a community of creatives around the hotel and eventually house an eclectic range of suites, each telling their own unique story.

Where a traditional hotel room might encourage total introspection that takes the visitor away from their surroundings, these suites invite touch and stimulate creative interaction with the pieces. Texture and sculptural finesse are two striking signature characteristics of Jan Hendzel Studio’s furniture designs.
