This project involved the construction of a new build hotel adjacent to Leicester Square in central London. In addition to 192 rooms, the hotel also includes a signature spa, fitness facility and a world-class restaurant and W Lounge. The façade of the building was wrapped in a ‘skin’ of frameless glazing and our scope involved the provision of environmental facade advice.
The façade is suspended from the face of the building like a floating sheer veil and designed to function as a vast pixelated screen capable of projecting dynamic light installations during the hours of darkness to provide dramatic aesthetic impact.
