London: a new vegetarian bistro with decor by Faye Toogood

Studio Toogood Designs Holy Carrot, a New London Restaurant with a Unique Interior Design

Mandated to design Holy Carrot, the new London restaurant with vegetal accents by Irina Linovich, Studio Toogood has deployed a decor that is both raw and expressive. Founder Faye Toogood drew inspiration from the history of the Spitalfields neighborhood, long marked by its Victorian fruit and vegetable market. The space revolves around a palette of simple materials (white tiles, metal, concrete, and linoleum), creating a deliberately stripped-back backdrop.

Complementing this is carefully selected furniture, striking a balance between antique pieces, contemporary creations, and custom elements, such as powder-coated steel bar stools upholstered in textured fabrics. The studio also incorporates more delicate touches: a sculpted paper chandelier, textured aluminum candle holders, and a large immersive mural depicting a landscape where human figures and monumental vegetal forms interact. “It’s an ode to the earth, to what nourishes us, and to the perpetual cycle of regeneration,” shares Faye Toogood. “I wanted the space, and especially this mural, to explore our connection to the earth and to what we eat.”

This unique setting houses the cuisine of chef Daniel Watkins, who crafts daily expressive and seasonally rooted vegetarian dishes.
