About our Ground Floor Outlets
The Library Lounge was created to pay homage to the Camden Council Library once housed within these walls. Designed as both a cosy lounge and library, it is our hub for music and cultural programming and hosts a large collection of vintage books we’ve playfully curated into categories our guests can enjoy with coffee or cocktails.
While we take every detail of design and guest experience seriously, we do not take ourselves too seriously. ‘Standard People’ are at the heart of our brand; vivid, dynamic and engaging, so you’ll intrinsically understand the unique microcosm and the context of our venues and the city you represent.
