Oche brings together a sensational menu, original cocktails, and a refreshed version of the classic darts game. Having enjoyed success in Norway, The Netherlands, Sweden, and Australia, The Strand venue is the brand’s first in the UK. Named after the line from where players stand when throwing darts, Oche offers a world-first experience for guests in London, introducing a unique boutique concept to set a new benchmark for future venues.
As a B Corp certified company, Area carefully selected the suppliers they worked with, partnering with companies that share the same environmental and sustainable values. The studio was conscious to minimise emissions as much as possible throughout the value chain. Existing brickwork was repurposed and playfully balanced with other modern materials and finishes, like the rich herringbone floor, emerald mosaic tiling and polished brass hardware. The sophisticated interior design scheme accentuates the contrast between raw and refined materials, a nod to the specialty ingredients on the menu. This complementary tension also exists in Oche’s sightlines, a play on the hidden and visible.
