Designer Max Radford and the studio Cake Architecture borrowed rich colours from Indian artworks to create this intimate basement cocktail bar in London’s Soho.

Nominated at this year’s Dezeen Awards in the sustainable interior category, Spanish restaurant Mo De Movimiento was assembled almost entirely out of upcycled junk and site construction waste at the former theatre and recording studio.

Rubble weighing 1,700 kilograms produced from the renovation was transformed into thick tiles that make up continuous bench seating, while other furniture was created from wooden structures found on the site.
