Challenges and solutions

In order to bring architectural unity in the project, we needed to design and construct the restaurant building between two existing sheds. We constructed walkways to physically connect each building where large glazing areas were included in the walkways that required close attention to detail to ensure the glazing was supported and that the roof insulation met requirements of a public building.

We collaborated closely with the client's architect at the design stage to ensure the restaurant was fit for purpose and a practical solution.
