Staircase and Courtyard

The staircase finishes comprised of board marked concrete walls, precast stairs, drylining ceiling with integrated LED lighting strips. The lighting includes bespoke metal balustrade and complete with a black timber handrail.

The courtyards located on the ground and lower ground floors consist of a mixture of board marking concrete and tiled walls. The metal privacy screens to the top of the courtyards were designed as a barrier, but to also to allow light through to the building space.

Bottleworks reception

The fit-out of the café and reception area consisted of 16mm thick terrazzo flooring with a bespoke mix of marble chippings, bespoke gloss timber joinery walls and counter tops, and flued glazed screens with automated doors. The lighting was unique to the project, with some extending six metres in length of curved light.

The terrazzo floors at the reception and landlord areas possess a unique pearl-like quality. This is a testament to the iterative process of custom mixes worked out between all project stakeholders.
