Beluga
Now Revolution Bar
The three separate uses for the building have distinct entrances, united by the steel and glass screen. The third-floor flats have exposed original roof trusses and a calm and unfussy fit-out.
Beluga Edinburgh
30a Chambers St, opposite Museum of Scotland
Beluga opened early 2001: basement bar & restaurant. The interior is clean and restrained. Beluga's key draw is a stacked stone waterfall by the entry stairs. Beluga's huge expensive glazed entry doors by Lee Boyd are another classy feature.
Lee Boyd
Former Dental School, Chambers St, 1999-2000
Opposite the entrance to the new Museum Extension is the subtly-inserted entry to the Grade B-listed former Edinburgh Dental School converted into residential accommodation (right, above), offices and a ground & basement bar/restaurant. The latter comes complete with a spectacular waterfall by the stairs, Beluga.
