Tiles Used
Wyatt 3MLB105, Kinlough 3MLB108 and Allegra 3MLB109, all from the Marbalite 1 range, and Hamptonian 3GTH512 from the Rawstone range.
Outcome
Inspired by the ever-popular Art Deco movement, the Strand Palace was given a contemporary revamp featuring a subtle nod to the stylish 1920s design concept. Greeting guests at the entrance are the opulent marble-effect Hamptonian tiles from Solus’ Rawstone range, the undulating charcoal appearance of which provides a dramatic first impression.
Bespoke steps composed of gleaming white and silver-veined Wyatt tiles, tipped with edges of cinder toned Allegra, both from the Marbalite 1 range, lead into the lobby. The custom-crafted ascent is illuminated by underfloor LED lighting, exuding an aura of luxurious sophistication.
The honed tiles also grace the reception area with Allegra randomly featured throughout the design, creating a geometric pattern within the body of its counterpart and directing visitors through the space towards the tastefully refurbished hub of the 785-bedroom hotel.
A sense of cohesion is woven throughout the venue thanks to the repetition of bespoke-cut Allegra and Wyatt with the addition of the bronze dappled Kinlough, also from Marbalite 1, which create a theatrical curved apron around the bar.
