Commercial Decorators for Sketch Mayfair – A Bold Pink Interior Transformation on a Grand Scale
A project built on trust, precision, and flawless logistics
As experienced commercial painters, we know that some projects go far beyond brushes and paint. When a client asked us to repaint the main hall of the iconic Sketch restaurant in Mayfair, we recognised both the scale of the challenge and the opportunity to deliver something exceptional in a high-profile setting.
Sketch – a living work of art in the heart of London
Sketch is not just a restaurant – it’s one of London’s most imaginative venues. A fusion of art gallery and fine dining, every room is a curated space designed by renowned artists. The main dining hall, with its soaring dome nearly 11 metres high, was ready for a bold new identity. The vision was to transform it into a deep, custom pink space that would be unforgettable yet true to the Sketch spirit.
Nine days to transform a landmark space
The brief was tight: complete the project in just nine working days. Our scope covered the preparation and repainting of all surfaces – walls, ceilings, and ornate architectural details – while other renovation works continued in parallel. Timing, coordination, and quality had to be perfect.
Working around an active renovation site
Operating within an active work environment required precise coordination. Multiple contractors were on-site simultaneously, which meant our decorating services had to be perfectly synchronised to avoid disruption. Careful planning ensured our team could move efficiently through each phase while maintaining safety and precision.
Preparation and surface care
Our role as decorating contractors required meticulous preparation. As a trusted decorating company, we understood that every detail mattered. Surfaces were carefully sanded, smoothed, and levelled to create an ideal base for the new finish, ensuring perfect colour adhesion and longevity.
Teamwork and shift planning
We assigned a 10-person team working in day and night shifts, overseen by an on-site project manager. Thanks to our expertise in commercial painting, the process ran efficiently while maintaining the highest standards of safety and precision.
Logistics and efficiency in commercial painting
Delivering this project on such a tight schedule required discipline and planning. Materials arrived on time, shifts were coordinated precisely, and communication remained clear across every phase. Our background in commercial painting made all the difference.
Protecting the character of a landmark venue
Working inside a creative institution like Sketch meant balancing speed with respect. We treated the site as both a workspace and a work of art. Our decorating services included protecting delicate features and daily inspections to preserve the venue’s character.
Attention to detail in every layer
Throughout the project, we used Graco spray equipment to reach the 11-metre-high ceiling and upper walls, achieving fast, even coverage. Focused lighting allowed us to spot even the smallest imperfections. This attention to detail defines us as professionals who combine craftsmanship with technical precision.
Delivering consistency and quality under pressure
Every stage was monitored closely to ensure the same standard of finish across all surfaces. Our supervisors carried out regular inspections throughout both shifts. The result was a consistent, high-quality outcome despite the demanding schedule — a true hallmark of our decorating services.
Coordinating decorating services with tight deadlines
The project wasn’t only about painting but also about organisation and client communication. Our decorating services included planning, protection, and final touch-ups within the nine-day timeframe, showing how commercial painting and full-service decorating work seamlessly together.
The result – iconic, immersive and unmistakably Sketch
The main dining room was reborn in a bold yet elegant pink – striking and completely refreshed. Delivered on time and with flawless quality, it stands as proof of what can be achieved when commercial painters and decorating contractors work with dedication and skill.
