Architectural Profile: Tom Dixon’s Coal Office

Once “the debaucherous The Cross nightclub,” The Coal Office in London’s industrial Coal Drops Yard is the new home for Tom Dixon, designer extraordinaire.

The Coal Office is an all-encompassing sensory delight. See the exposed brick and serpentine arches in the Lighting and Furniture Shops. Smell the scented candles and lotions in the Perfumery. Feel the smooth fabrics and soft textures at the Haberdashery. Hear the music of the spheres on the roof terrace (or recorded beats during special events that honor the space’s disco heritage). And taste delicious dishes at the Coal Office Restaurant, featuring renowned Chef Assaf Granit.
