The first thing we decided on when we got the keys to this building was to knock though the floor from ground floor to lower ground so that we hopefully got some natural basement light. Safe to say we’re pretty happy with that decision ☀️☀️☀️ Thanks @ifthisistris 📸

We tried to spell NOW HIRING with our bodies but it went terribly wrong as we quite obviously didn’t have enough limbs involved; please if you are a plant based chef or someone who would be keen to get on board with events on an ad hoc basis please check out www.benkandbo.com/careers🤞👨🏽‍🍳🤹🏻‍♀️

You know you are in a good place when Monday morning feels like the first day of holiday.. or wait, is it just because it’s a full moon? Either way, we are playing ABBA on the stereo (@jasminlais ‘s favorite) and drinking freshly brewed filter! Life ✔️

This is Chloe creeping through the leaves on her way into the weekend. Happy Friday y’all 🌿🌱⚡️☀️

We don’t compromise on the ingredients! Come around for some @cacklebean_eggs and avo why don’t ya? 🐣

Aaaah, people watching; our favorite pastime! 🕵🏻‍♀️🗺🌴

BEFORE / AFTER -
It’s pretty much exactly two years ago since we got the key to 4-6 Gravel Lane and started the process towards transforming this old three floor haberdashery into our dream space. A lot of things didn’t make the cut; like porcelain light switches and resin floor in the basement, but we’re pretty damn happy with the outcome either way. The most magical part of it all being the humans who we couldn’t plan for and who at times seem like a part of the interior! THANK YOU for the continuous support and love. Mi casa es su casa - always 🏡💛

One of our favorite places in London is @barbicancentre, just a 15 minutes walk away. When our building was under planning in the 60s they initially planned a walkway linking up the two buildings, which apparently has left our estate to be called the poor mans barbican estate. When fitting out Benk + Bo we did a lot of our design decisions inspired by the brutalist architecture of this iconic concrete jungle. Those of you who have been to our shower room might have seen the sleek white sink sitting in the wall; an original barbican sink which took us months of hustling to get our hands on.
In other words: if you’re missing us this weekend and want to be surrounded by greens and concrete then I’d say this is a pretty decent substitute AND the current exhibition with Lee Krasner is an absolute stunner! 🌿🎨 HAPPY WEEKEND!

Some sweet sweet summer sun bouncing in from buildings across the road ⚡️✨
