We saw creating 37 luxury apartments and a 400-seat restaurant in a heritage listed building as an opportunity to use innovative methods and materials to both preserve and create. A new staircase and lift shaft were installed – plus fire tank, pump room and two car stackers. The core was built up and reinforced. A new level was added and carefully integrated with the existing elaborate brickwork and window design. Residence and restaurant work finished simultaneously.

it’s never to be seen again”
