Customisation and bespoke design

Designers Ctrl Space were tasked with transforming the building into a beautiful, functional hospitality environment. While working with a heritage building can be a challenge, Sam Griffin of Ctrl Space says the pros far outweigh the cons, listing “the classic detailing, quality building materials, and a richness that comes with use over many years” as pros of the project. To keep the authenticity of the space, Ctrl Space reworked many of the existing materials or brought in upcycled pieces; aged timbers, hand-rendered walls, Axminster carpets, and rattan-backed chairs, each contributing to the desired aesthetic.
