September '07 News

Fans of the high life are in for a treat from September onwards, with the opening of SHH's sleek and sexy new bar/restaurant for premier champagne and wine bar brand dion.  Set within a historic building on West India Quay in London's Canary Wharf, the new 360-capacity bar occupies the ground and lower ground of the space, as well as an external area -The Veuve Clicquot Terrace - bordered by bamboo planting and lined with tented pavilions.  As well as being responsible for the interior architecture and design of the space, SHH are also applying the brand to menus, matchboxes and signage.

dion Canary Wharf will offer guests the longest champagne list of any independent bar in London and will also be the only non-nightclub in London to carry the exclusive Armand de Brignac 'Ace of Spades' champagne, the world's most expensive non-vintage cuvée, served in a gold-plated bottle!  To compliment the extensive champagne and wine offer, chef James Kirby (former chef-proprietor of Cotto W8) will also offer a delicious food menu, including oysters and seafood, built around a British theme with French influences.  The design concept was to develop and accentuate dion's status as a luxury brand, creating 3D and 2D brand associations in terms of pattern, colour and materiality.
