Artwork on the Windows of HoSt Restaurant

October 28, 2009

To coincide with the Liverpool Design Festival, HoSt restaurant on Hope Street have commissioned artist John Ford to produce artwork for their windows.

The result is very interesting, based on Hokusai’s Great Wave, this version has replaced Mount Fuji with the Liver building.

I like the clean, light open aspect of HoSt (the food is great too) but this adds a nice dash of colour as well as shielding diners from the eyes of the many Hope Street pedestrians.

Friday 30 October to Sunday 8 November
11am to 11pm daily
HOST
31 Hope Street
