Description
A popular Aberdeen bar and restaurant has undergone a major refurbishment following a significant six-figure investment to expand the venue. The new and improved No.10 Bar & Restaurant, which has been designed by award-winning architects Nicoll Russell Studios, provides the city with a relaxed yet sophisticated dining experience with stylish surroundings and a traditional, yet contemporary menu to match.
Tiles Used
Victorian style tiles from the Program 2 range and hexagon mosaics from the Capital range.
Outcome
Solus collaborated with the design team to supply a number of tile ranges to the project and were delighted to contribute to such a fantastic hospitality project.
The fifth venue in the client’s expanding portfolio, No. 10 is the biggest yet. Originally two separate basement units, the space were transformed to accommodate a large restaurant and intimate bar. The brief for the project was to create a high-end, elegant eatery that suited the affluent neighbourhood but would also attract a wider and more diverse crowd.
Themed around the financial market heritage of the building, the design fuses expensive, traditional materials in a contemporary style with traditional values to create a blend of opulence and intimacy.
In the main bar Solus supplied hexagon shaped mosaic tiles from the Capital range to the bar apron. White tiles were fixed and set with randomly placed black tiles, creating a unique and original pattern.
In the WC’s the traditional aesthetic of the Victorian building is celebrated with tiles from Solus’ Program 2 range. These high-specification Victorian inspired black and white tiles form an intricate and bold pattern, echoing the heritage of the building and providing the luxurious aesthetic sought by the client.
