Cannings’ second and new flagship store, located in a 1960s building in Kew, was designed by the Melbourne-based multidisciplinary design studio, Fiona Lynch. The resulting space is a striking, tasteful and elegant butchery befitting a purveyor of ethically farmed meats. The shop itself has a visually strong, modern and masculine aesthetic that is clearly manifested in the central island fridge (also the shop’s focus point) made out of stone, polished chrome and timber. Further defining features include a glass recess in the rear grey tiled wall allows customers to peer in at the butchers as they work, clean lines which add to the store’s minimal character and wood gridded walls and battens which provide warmth and texture. Lighting details and plants add further colour and personality to the space that is both alluring and inviting.
