OUR BRIEF: To manufacture and fit 20 metres of bespoke double-sided bookcasing
for the Society’s research library in North London .In addition, we were charged with
constructing two Corian-topped reception desks.

Working with the client’s concept designs, we created shop drawings and then built the furniture off-site before fitting it in place. Fit-out included the installation of strip LED lights to illuminate the shelving.

Although it is extremely durable, Corian is also very heavy. To combat this, we designed and fitted a steel frame, placed inside the structure of the reception desk so that it would be invisible, to carry the weight of the desktop.

Deceptively understated in design, the bookcases were carefully constructed to be strong enough to cope with the Society’s considerable collection of books and printed materials.
