Frank's Bar

Frank's Cafe was commissioned by The Hannah Barry Gallery to accompany their summer sculpture show, Bold Tendancies.

Situated ontop of an old 10 storey car park, the bar and furniture are constructed using old timber and the red roof and ratchet straps were fabricated in a factory that produces drop down canvases for commercial lorries.

The cafĂ© has panoramic views of London from the Millenium Dome, past Big Ben and the London Eye to Crystal Palace and was completed on a budget of £5000. The whole project was built by an unskilled volunteer workforce in just 25 days.
