The architecture and material finishes specified in this collaboration between Modieus and studio X+O are used to create distinct zones, which include a bar and lounge. The dark, layered palette of black timber, terrazzo, black metal and custom Axminster carpet tiles enhance the moody ambience.
Acoustic performance was a key consideration throughout the project. Alongside sound-check plasterboard ceilings, acoustic timber wall panels and integrated acoustic detailing within gaming machine screens, the felt-backed Axminster tiles contributed to enhanced sound absorption, supporting guest comfort across bar, lounge and gaming areas.
Commissioned by Holman Barnes Group, the 330-square-metre redevelopment united three ground-floor tenancies and connected them seamlessly to the existing level one venue, while maintaining live operations throughout. Since reopening, the club has reported a significant uplift in patronage and has received industry recognition for its interior design excellence.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Hotel Designs.
