Key Points of Interest
Collaboration
Working in close collaboration with KB Architects, the office spaces were ‘defurbed’ by removing the existing ceiling tiles and exposing new services to increase ceiling heights.
Geometric Shapes
Located in front of the lift shaft, the design of the feature wall and reception desk was inspired by the geometric shapes of the Titanic and the hulls of ships to reference Belfast’s shipbuilding heritage.
Premium
The feature wall was crafted by using a 3D formed MDF substrate that was prefabricated off-site and finished in polished plaster to give it a premium look and feel.
Industrial
The industrial design scheme continues with the feature reception desk, which has been finished in a patinated brass to add vibrancy, texture and warmth to the surrounding exposed surfaces.
