SpaceInvader – Blok at Lanelay Hall, South Wales

Text provided by design practice.

SpaceInvader transformed the formerly underused restaurant at Lanelay Hall, a luxury boutique hotel and spa in South Wales, into a vibrant dining destination. Featuring a fine dining menu focused on seasonal British produce, BLOK’s open, theatrical kitchen and central booth area are joined by a botanical theme of indoor planting and a warm, natural palette, highlighting the restaurant’s Georgian oak panelling. Key features include a private dining area and full-height glass showcases for wine and aged meats, as well as bespoke furniture, herringbone timber flooring, and ambient lighting. Seating capacity was increased from 48 to 60 covers, making BLOK a destination venue that respects the building’s heritage while offering a contemporary, dynamic dining experience.
