# Light-Filled Michelin-Starred Restaurants Bindloss Dawes Designed a New Residence for Osip By Amy Duong | Published 2024-10-16 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/osip References: [dezeen](https://www.dezeen.com/2024/10/15/osip-restaurant-bruton-bindloss-dawes/) & [bindlossdawes](https://www.bindlossdawes.com/)  Architecture firm [Bindloss Dawes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mews-house-1) has taken on a project to renovate a new space for Osip, a [Michelin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-mediterranean-restaurant)-starred [farm-to-table restaurant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/logy). Osip is led by Chef Merlin Labron-Johnson and the renovation process transformed the 18th-century pub located in Somerset, England into a restaurant. The team peeled back the building comprised of three storeys back to the original silhouette by taking out the recent additions and stabilizing the stone walls. The co-founder of the studio, Olive Bindloss speaks to Dezeen about the design changes, sharing "The original Osip had a road-facing window and a small serving hatch, giving diners a limited view of the kitchen. In the new restaurant, we have opened up new windows and the garden to create wide views of the surrounding landscape."
