From stone to stove.

The CookBook Stories trailer introduces a branded entertainment project for stoneCIRCLE, one of the UK’s leading stonemasonry companies. By merging architecture and gastronomy, the film series transforms stone surfaces into stages for culinary artistry.

Chefs Greg Emmerson and Lorenzo Salami, guided by presenter Donna Thacker, craft dishes that fuse flavour with storytelling. Filmed directly in stoneCIRCLE’s yard, the project juxtaposes timeless craftsmanship with contemporary lifestyle, positioning the brand as more than a fabricator—an innovator and cultural voice .

Through the Space+Style™ philosophy, stone becomes the narrative backdrop, while cuisine and film converge into an experience of elegance, creativity and taste. This trailer sets the tone for a series that redefines how industries intersect through storytelling.
