Bape Conduit Street Closed Down Adidas Oxford Street German based sportswear company Adidas are the biggest sportswear designers and manufacturers in Europe and second biggest in the world, only to Nike. In early 2019 we were awarded the contract to fit out their new flagship store in Oxford Street. This was a huge project with a floor area of over 4,700m2 (50,600sq.ft) over 5 floors and a contract period of only 18 weeks. Our dedicated site workers and management teams, managed to maximise the time available within the restrictions imposed by Westminster Council and the project was consequently completed two days early, much to the appreciation of the client. EXPANDED H&M Oxford Circus H&M’s flagship store in London’s Oxford Circus provided a challenging project for the Powells team to convert all eight floors of this Grade II listed building for use. Previously only trading across four floors the remit was to produce a fit out with six trading floors and two floors dedicated to back room staff areas and offices. This included major structural work, new openings for staircases and escalators as well as major shopfitting works, adaptations and extensions to all the main services throughout. The result was a very large and remarkable store befitting of its iconic location and proved a launchpad for multiple other projects with this longstanding client of ours. L S L T E L D W O P H&M S U C H IR &M C OXFORD Cartier New Bond Street This prestigious project over five floors across New Bond Street and Albemarle Street, Mayfair required the utmost attention to detail. Major structural and re-roofing work had to be undertaken to get the building prepared for the stunning internal fit-out. A luxurious array of bespoke fixtures and marble clad Italian cabinetry were installed to create an extraordinarily high quality finish. Further work included the restoration of ornate fibrous cornices and plaques, the installation of octagonal patterned parquet flooring and fan segmented stone flooring punctuated with patinated brass bars. Original fireplaces, intricate hardwood, wall panelling and the lift system all had to be carefully restored, whilst new chandeliers and Turkish carpets had to be installed. The result was Cartier’s magnificent new ‘Temple’, described in the luxury press as a ‘church of craftmanship’.

The high-class tailoring company makes and wholesales its own fabrics to other tailors as well as making bespoke garments. We were awarded the contract to create a fantastic new showroom, one of eight in Europe. W E L L S O L P T D SCABAL S C A BA L OW SAVILE R Jerome Zodo Art Gallery Mayfair The fit out of Jerome Zodo Gallery on the ground, first and second floors on Dering Street London included structural work, services and new floor and wall finishes, all to provide a minimalist backdrop for the exhibits. This was not our first London art gallery as we also fitted out the ‘Thomas Gibson Fine Art’ gallery in Piccadilly. L S L T E L D W O P JEROME ZODO Y R E L L A JE R G O T M AR E ZODO Dsquared2 Mayfair Store This striking new store, located in Conduit Street, London, was completed to exacting standards. The store is sleek and shiny with dark woods, natural stone and tonal mirrors boasting three floors of retail space. After the store fit- out we converted the empty second floor space to office accommodation.

The first project awarded to us was their Regent Street flagship store which featured a stunning circular glass, natural stone and hardwood staircase with leather wrapped handrails. This was quickly followed by their Mayfair store which started the week after the handover of Regent Street. S L T D L L E W O P LONGCHAMP T E E R T S T L N O E N G EG CHAMP R Louis Vuitton New Bond Street One of the most prestigious projects undertaken in recent years was the total rebuild and fit-out of the Louis Vuitton ‘Maison’ in New Bond Street, Mayfair, London. Most of the main structure was removed leaving only the front facade, and then the building was then strengthened with many tonnes of structural steel. After a year of structural work the fit-out began which included an LED illuminated glass staircase with programmable screens in every step – just one of the many features in this iconic building.
