Project Overview

Papa Johns enlisted the expertise of MBH to undertake a redesign of their Innovation Centre located at the Milton Keynes Headquarters. The task at hand was to create a new environment that could cater to their specific requirements, encompassing presentation and discussion areas, tasting and entertainment spaces, as well as a kitchen dedicated to the development of new flavours.

This project was led by MBH, from its initial concept to a successful and notably swift delivery, in order to meet Papa John's tight timeframe demands.

Design Approach

The approach taken involved designing open-plan areas that seamlessly transitioned into a cohesive and multifunctional experience. Each distinct function was allocated a dedicated space within this open layout. The design aesthetic leaned toward a contemporary and forward-looking style, utilizing lighting elements and minimal joinery for a sleek and modern look.

Special attention was given to subtly incorporate the brand's colours and provide opportunities to showcase the brand's achievements around the central kitchen island counter, symbolizing the essence of the brand.
