Situated in one of inner London’s most deprived neighbourhoods, the Hackney School of Food project has converted a redundant school caretaker’s house into a specialist food education centre for primary school children and the local community
Hackney School of Food is a joint venture between the LEAP Federation of Schools and the charity Chefs in Schools. In 2018, Surman Weston won an invited competition to help the organisations realise their ambitious vision for a purpose-built food education hub.
A couple have transformed their dining room into a stylish living space in just three days on a £600 budget.
Lesley Swales and Paul Parkin, from East Rainton, Durham, decided to undertake the DIY project as a way of creating more space to host family gatherings again after lockdown.
The space was given a new lease of life with bench seating, a live edge table, up-cycled wall units, reupholstered chairs and some stunning budget accessories to complete the look.

The shops have sold out of budget home-working options but it's easy and inexpensive to make your own and it will give you something to do in lockdown.
