A N Working in partnership with Cadogan Estates, we carried out the H reconstruction and fit-out of the prestigious Belmond Cadogan O Hotel on the famous Sloane Street, London. T The building is known for its historical significance – boasting E both the socialite Lillie Langtry and Oscar Wilde as former guests L – and underwent major demolition, façade retention and a full structural rebuild. Behind the carefully restored stately 19th century façade, works included underpinning the structure to form a new sub-basement, reconfiguring the space from 64 rooms to 54 and redesigning the roof area. The entrance hall features the original floral mosaic floor design and 130 year-old wooden wall paneling, fully restored by BECK. 17 B E L M O N D C A D O G A N H O T E L EXTRAORDINARY EXECUTION 19 ROSEWOOD LONDON HOLBORN, LONDON 21 R O S E W O O D L REFURBISHMENT OF AN O AWARD-WINNING, GRADE II N D LISTED LANDMARK HOTEL.

Our attention to detail is apparent throughout, from the horse hair panels, alpaca tiles and an elaborate Rose Bronze Gallery. 23 R O S E FORGE W O A NEW O D WORLD L O N D O N “The best new hotel in the world” TELEGRAPH ULTRATRAVEL 25 R O S E W O O D L O N D O N 27 100 SYDNEY STREET CHELSEA, LONDON 29 1 0 0 S Y D N E Y S T R E E T REDEVELOPMENT OF A FORMER OFFICE BUILDING INTO A SUITE OF PRESTIGIOUS LUXURY APARTMENTS, DUPLEX AND PENTHOUSE.

Designed with cutting-edge interiors and art-filled public spaces, this independently owned hotel required fit-out work for the creation of 34 guestrooms with external terraces, penthouse suite, the public and back-of-house areas, as well as an award-winning landscaping courtyard and terraces with planting over three floors. We retained many of the building’s existing industrial features, exposing old brickwork walls and steel beams. Specialist finishes were applied throughout with resin-poured floors, specially poured concrete walls, and superb bespoke joinery for the bars, reception desk and banquette seating, with custom-made joinery and unique glazed partition walls in the guestrooms. We installed new mechanical, electrical and domestic services, new lifts and staircases, and created tailored audio visual and lighting installations to add to the superlative guest experience. 37 T H E M A N D R A K E H O T E L MIXOLOGY 2018 WINNER Hospitality Interiors Project of the Year 39 T H E M A N D R A K E H O T E L AHEAD GLOBAL WINNER Landscaping & Outdoor Spaces 2019 41 THE LANESBOROUGH HYDE PARK, LONDON 43 T H E L A N E S B O R O A MAJOR INTERIOR U G REFURBISHMENT OF AN H ICONIC FIVE-STAR HOTEL IN CENTRAL LONDON.

  • Broadside Read- a Brief Chronology of Major Events in Trous Failure
    NEWSLETTER OF THE THEATRE LIBRARY ASSOCIATION Volume 17, Number 1/Volume 17, Number 2 SPECIAL DOUBLE ISSUE Summer/Fa111989 EXHIBITION SURVEYS MANHATTAN'S EARLY THEATRE HISTORY L An exhibition spotlighting three early New York theatres was on view in the Main I Gallery of The New York Public Library at Lincoln Center from February 13, 1990 through March 31, 1990. Focusing on the Park Theatre on Park Row, Niblo's Garden on Broadway and Prince Street, and Wal- lack's, later called the Star, on Broadway and 13th Street, the exhibition attempted to show, through the use of maps, photo- graphic blowups, programs and posters, the richness of the developing New York theatre scene as it moved northward from lower Manhattan. The Park Theatre has been called "the first important theatre in the United States." It opened on January 29, 1798, across from the Commons (the Commons is now City Hall Park-City Hall was built in 1811). The opening production, As You Like It, was presented with some of the fin- est scenery ever seen. The theatre itself, which could accommodate almost 2,000, was most favorably reviewed. It was one of the most substantial buildings erected in the city to that date- the size of the stage was a source of amazement to both cast and audience. In the early nineteenth century, to increase ticket sales, manager Stephen Price introduced the "star sys- tem" (the importation of famous English stars). This kept attendance high but to some extent discouraged the growth of in- digenous talent. In its later days the Park was home to a fine company, which, in addition to performing the classics, pre- sented the work of the emerging American playwrights.
