Nexus proudly collaborated on the relocation and fit-out of The Coal Shed in Brighton, one of the city’s largest and most iconic restaurants. Set within a historic Georgian building, this 4,500 sq. ft. space was transformed into a chic industrial-style venue, seamlessly blending heritage architecture with a modern New York-inspired brasserie interior.
Project managing from concept to completion Nexus worked closely with interior designer Sara Fenn and owner Raz Helalat throughout to ensure their vision was brought to life. Features include five distinct dining areas, curved booths for intimate dining and a standout open over-fire kitchen. The team worked meticulously to preserve the building’s original exposed brickwork and combine it with contemporary industrial elements such as black-painted walls and charred-to-black wood to establish a sophisticated urban aesthetic.
