Workshop · Stage & Set
Our scenic workshop
Stages, bars, backdrops, dancefloors. Drawn, cut and finished by hand on our own benches, then installed by the people who made them.
What we build
Every element, made in our workshop
The floor underfoot, the bars, the stages, the backdrops, the tables. Every piece drawn and built by hand for your room.
Dancefloors
Dancefloors, made to order
The dancefloor sets the tone for the whole party. We design and build floors to fit your room and your style, from a clean classic finish to a full custom centrepiece.
Every floor is laid level and safe, sized to your space, and finished to match the rest of your set and lighting.
Mirror dancefloors
A high gloss mirror finish that doubles the lighting and turns the whole floor into a feature.
Gloss white floors with monogram
Gloss white with your monogram at its heart. Clean in daylight, and a canvas for the lighting once the room goes dark.
Printed dancefloors
Your monogram, pattern or full design printed edge to edge and made in our own print room.
Shaped dancefloors
Circular, runway or fully bespoke shapes, cut to fit your room and your moment.
Bespoke bars
Bespoke bars
Front bars, back bars, island bars and statement printed, mirror or LED bars, all built and finished to your theme.
Designed to look beautiful and to work for your caterers and your guests.
Printed circular bars
A round, central bar printed in your design and lit to glow, a true centrepiece in the middle of the room.
Printed straight bars
A long, full-service bar wrapped in your pattern, built to handle a busy room and still look the part.
Bespoke back bars
A statement back bar that anchors the room, like this build for the Great Room at Grosvenor House, London.
Bespoke stage sets
Bespoke stage sets
The stage is where the first dance happens, the speeches land and the room's eyes go all night. We design and build it from scratch for your venue and your theme, like this bespoke stage with sweeping curved steps and an LED screen.
Designed around the lighting and screens, so the whole room reads as one.
Bespoke tables
Bespoke tables
Statement table builds designed around your layout, in any shape you can picture: sweeping C-shaped and curved top tables, straight banqueting runs, ovals, rounds, even donut tables that wrap your party around the centre.
Finished however you like, in mirror, high gloss or fully printed, and built to match the rest of your set.
Seating plans
Floor-standing 3D seating plans
Large, freestanding seating plans built to make an entrance, full-height structures with raised, three-dimensional lettering and layered panels that guests see the moment they walk in.
Finished in mirror, gold leaf, acrylic, gloss or print to match your theme, engineered to stand safely and read clearly from across the room, so the plan becomes a feature in its own right.
Food carts
Bespoke food carts
Characterful, custom-built food and drink carts that bring a moment to your day, from pizza and street-food carts to dessert, paan or prosecco stands.
Hand-built and finished to suit your theme, branded to you and ready to roll wherever the celebration needs them.

In house scenic workshop
Our own workshop, our own makers
Nothing here comes out of a catalogue. We keep a scenic workshop and the makers to run it, so the same people draw a set, build it and install it.
Designers and 3D visualisers
Your set gets drawn in CAD and rendered photoreal. You approve a picture before anyone cuts a panel.
Carpenters and joiners
A dedicated build team who turn the drawings into real, solid structures.
CNC operators
Precision routing for shapes, letters, and any detail that has to repeat exactly across a room.
Scenic painters and artists
Hand finishes, faux materials and gilding. This is the trade that stops a build looking like plywood in a nice colour.
Metalwork and fabrication
Frames and structures, load rated. Unglamorous, and the reason nothing moves when people lean on it.
Spray and finishing
Gloss and mirror finishes off our own spray booth, where the dust is controlled and the coats are not rushed.
Install crew
The same team that builds it in the workshop sets it up safely at your venue.
Everything you see and hear on the day comes out of our building. Same designers, same crew, same van. That is why the floor matches the backdrop rather than nearly matching it.
Nothing sub-contracted
Sound, lighting, screens, staging, print: all ours. Things fall between suppliers. There are no gaps between us.
One person, start to night
Whoever quotes your wedding plans it, rigs it and is standing at the back of the room when the speeches start.
Our own kit, every time
We are not renting in and hoping. The same stock and the same crew means the standard does not move.
We probably know your venue
The Dorchester, Claridge's, The Londoner, Grosvenor House, Dallas Burston. If yours is new to us, we come and walk it first.
Planning a corporate or large-scale event?
The same workshop produces stages, sets and scenic for conferences, launches and awards through our sister company, Kudos AV.

Sound, print, stage, set. One team, so the room reads as one idea rather than four invoices.
