The Toast Rack or ‘Hollings Building’ is one of the best example of Brutalist ‘Pop Architecture’ in the world. Its innovative design was conceived by LC Howitt and complete in 1960. It stands in Fallowfield, Manchester’s student district and received its nickname due to the buildings unique hyperbolic paraboloid frame which closely resembles a toast rack. Continuing the breakfast theme, a semi-circular restaurant block is attached to the west and is informally known as the Fried Egg!
Sustainably Crafted
We all want the world to be a better place. We are trying to do our bit. We reuse, recycle and use less where we can. We search out sustainable local suppliers. We sponsor grassroots sports for the local youth, donating both money and time. We sponsor local environmental projects. We know we can do more but we're making a start!
Handmade
We hand make all of our models. Chisel & Mouse is the combination of an artisan’s approach (the chisel) with modern innovation and transformative technologies (the mouse). By capturing life and its big ideas in miniature, the brand celebrates the beauty of our industrialised world.
