For the Chop: Butcher combines tradition with cutting-edge design

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

Sydney – A butcher has had a boutique makeover; joints of meat and poultry hang from the ceiling at Victor Churchill, where clever design combines history with modern features.

Created by Dreamtime Australia Design, the butcher shop, which was established in 1876, now features custom-made copper refrigerated cabinets to display meat. An old sandstone wall has been used to create a backdrop for the butcher’s ‘working stage’.
