Berry Street Lift Solution

Outside Berry Street Entrance

Inside Berry Street Entrance

ArcherArchitects and MyLyft were able to come up with a practical solution to deal with  the difference between street level and the Client’s Berry Street building reception by placing the lift inside the building and using a full height door at street level.

Coleman Street

 

TOILETS CORE

Warm toned wooden panelling also dominates in the toilet core, the wall on the left-hand side of the lobby entirely clad. Thanks to a detailed design and an accurate implementation all doors are entirely flush within the wall cladding with no recess or frames providing a high specification finish.

A unique feature on this wall is created by the inserts of mirror meticulously installed between the white oak veneered wall battens. An interesting linear light reflection helps to visually enlarge the narrow space of the lobby.

An explosion of materials with a refined palette of grey in the cubicle where the monochrome grey flooring compensates for the stylish terrazzo effect walling tiles and satin etch finish dark grey of the access panel balances vivid black tone of all fittings.

Coleman Street Reception/Common Parts

A visual interest curved shape wall in the reception area drives people through the entrance of the building. The european oak battens on it create a consistent linear texture intensified along the bottom to create a visual interest alternating with different depths of batten.

The cove lighting from the ceiling provides a soft effect to define the high-class aesthetic of the wooden cladding in its entirety.  Achieved by incorporating a LED strip above the ceiling pocket, this method subtly emphasises the feature whilst also hiding the lighting system hidden.

The reception desk designed with a solid piece of marble visuallly contrasts the surrounding fit out, with its stylish carrara cladding occupies a prominent/pivotal position in the entrance area.

Top-bottom fixed veneered timber screen spanning from floor to ceiling consists of reinforced battens of various depths and heights. The rhythm is gradually intensified along the first flight of stairs matching the solid panelling wrapping the entire lift shaft through the building.

Coleman Street Façade

The fully restored principal elevation to Coleman Street makes a positive contribution both to the conservation area and the street scene.  The ground floor retail retains the circulicular motif as shown in the original design (as shown in historical photos.) and a new contemporary double storey mansard with a zinc standing seam at 5thfloor.

New Nun Court Facade

One of the key aspects of the scheme is the construction of a new extension on to the existing rear courtyard area.

The new facade set back from the existing elevation thus allowing the existing facade to take precedence and providing a visual break between the retained and the new extension. The type of brick used for the extension  complements the portland stone on the principal elevation (a pale grey with matching mortar) and duly contrasts dramatically with the retained brickwork of the existing building.

When the facade reaches 6th floor level there is a marked change in the treatment of the fenestration, with a spectacular full height curtain walling.
