Christophers, a stalwart of the Covent Garden dining scene, has reopened with an opulent new interior designed by De Matos Ryan, working in close collaboration with Christophers owners. Eschewing the current climate of austerity and abstinence the sumptuous new interiors hark back to a bygone era of glamour and revelry, celebrating the ornate and exceptional character of the existing building and the atmosphere of heady decadence embodied in the very fabric of the place. Originally opened in 1991, Christophers has become a much-loved institution amongst Londons media crowd. It occupies a Grade II listed building in a prominent location opposite the Lyceum in the heart of Londons Theatreland. from De Matos Ryan
