Main Focus
The main focus was to provide a spectacular Reception Area,
involving curved walls, as part of the general refurbishment of
this THF Hotel, close to Edinburgh Airport. The Reception area is
the centrepiece of the hotel.
Challenge
The challenge was that the design for this particular
project called for several walls, in close proximity, with varying
radii. The walls also run at an offset angle, vertically, between
floor and ceiling.
Solution
The solution was to construct the framework,
using Gypframe metal studs on plywood formers, lined with
2 x 6mm Glasroc MultiBoard. The boards were hand jointed, using
Gyproc Joint Filler and Gyproc Joint Cement, producing a striking
and quite unique partition system.
