In the hipsterfication of Dalston, the local Turkish shopkeepers have been besieged my a wave of aspiring bearded promoters seeking to transform basement spaces into bars. This architectural services for this basement space beneath the former 'Istanbul Carpets' was to acquire planning permission and a premises licence as the interior decor does not require designer input. Like many a Berlin-Neukoln bar, a Dalston bar should retain a certain design apathy attitude after all: I care but I don't give a shit. Whatever.
