Hundred House Coffee

About Hundred House Coffee

We founded Hundred House in 2016 after building careers across both art and speciality coffee, bringing together a shared passion for coffee and culture. From the beginning, we wanted to build slowly and intentionally, creating a company centred around exceptional coffee and a considered experience at every touchpoint; from the cafés and spaces that serve it, to the way it feels in your hands, through to the extraordinary coffees themselves.

Who We Are

At its core, Hundred House was conceived as more than a roastery alone; a space where coffee, creativity and community could meaningfully intersect, and where supporting artists and creative practices would become part of the fabric of the business itself.

About The Founders

Co-founded by Matt Wade and Anabelle de Gersigny, the roastery merges decades of specialty coffee expertise with world-class creative leadership. Matt brings over 20 years of experience—having worked as a barista across New Zealand, helped drive London's early 2000s coffee emergence as one of the UK’s first licensed Q-Graders, won numerous awards, served as Head Roaster at Union Hand Roasted, and co-founded Dubai's Nightjar Coffee—while Anabelle manages roastery operations, client partnerships, and community projects, drawing on her MA in Critical Writing from the Royal College of Art and an extensive curatorial background with institutions like Hauser + Wirth, Phaidon Press, and major museums across Abu Dhabi and Dubai to bring art into the coffee industry.

Art & Industry

Founded by arts graduates, rooted in creativity and shaped by deep industry experience, the arts run through everything we do, from how we package our coffee to creative sensory experiences, artist commissions and industry collaborations.

We work with artists, designers, musicians and writers on commissions, projects and partnerships, and through Freak & Unique, artworks are released alongside our coffees, making art accessible while forming a direct line of support into artists’ practices. Supporting the arts through industry, one bag at a time.
