Peckham餐厅的情侣主理人Amy Corbin和Patrick William最近又在皇后大街的拱桥下开了一家名为Smokey Kudu的别致鸡尾酒吧。新店的菜单包括15种具有南非风情的鸡尾酒、如干肉条等特色小吃和具有异国情调的优质酒饮。这一次，他们依然选择了长期合作的A-nrd工作室来负责酒吧的室内设计。

Sleek and intimate, Smokey Kudu revolves around a central horseshoe bar with a sky-high back bar set against an arched mirror geometrically framed with dark oak wood. The bar design draws inspiration from early 19th-century continental train station cafes featuring a brass over-head with glistering glass display and an Italian rose stone countertop with scallop edge in contrasting marbles.

绿色的天鹅绒隔间和深紫红色的大理石桌面，映衬着暗褐色的烧砖墙壁。古老的砖块和拱形金属结构的纹理相映成趣。低色调的镜面和钻石形状的手工琉璃瓦为舒适的座位区增添了一抹亮色。悬于穹顶、离地面近2米的Murano玻璃枝形吊灯采用威尼斯当地的材料手工制作而成，给酒吧内部带来了温暖的光线。

Green velvet booths with deep burgundy marble-topped tables are set against burnt umber walls humbly showing the textures of old bricks and arched metal structures. Low tinted mirrors and hand-glazed tiles in a diamond configuration are adding a sparkle to the cosy seating area. To complete the look an almost 2-metre high Murano glass chandelier, hand sourced in the Venice region is hanging in the centre of the arch glaring a warm light to the venue.
