More akin to a high street than a mews, this treatment provides excellent natural surveillance from within the hotel, whilst the proposed white brick facing maximises the light reflection and improves the ambience and atmosphere within the mews. This will provide vibrancy, interest and activity along this stretch of Vauxhall Bridge Road.Īddressing pre-existing issues with anti-social behaviour in King's Scholars' Passage, identified during the consultation period, DMA has developed a glazed treatment at the rear and used the existing levels to set the ground floor part way below and part way above street level. In comparison to the existing buildings on site, which form a disappointing gateway to central Victoria with little active frontage, the proposed hotel will feature a high quality, publicly accessible ground floor with food and beverage facilities accessible to all. This project adds to DMA's growing portfolio of considered, unique and interesting hotels that we have been designing and building in towns and cities across Britain and beyond."
In order to break the composition of the building within its streetscape setting, the overall façade has been broken up into several tonal elements, giving it two appearances. Mark Wood, Partner at DMA, says: "This is far from the old-fashioned cookie cutter hotel façade. When viewed from the south the building appears white framed with subtle accents of brickwork viewed from the north, in the context of the reddish masonry, terracotta and stone of Cathedral Mansions, the building shows itself predominantly of varied tones of brick panels with hints of light stone. Located within less than five minutes' walking distance from Victoria Station, one of Europe's busiest transport hubs, the hotel has been conceived and designed to meet the growing demand for tourist and business guest accommodation in the area.ĭMA's design has been influenced by the nearby Westminster Cathedral Conservation Area and the relationship between the hotel and neighbouring buildings, fine-tuning its perceived height, scale and massing to settle it elegantly into the streetscape.ĭMA's proposal utilises the two predominant materials used in Victoria - masonry and stone - and the design endeavours to make a unique take on this contextual reference, with a deep facetted façade allocating each material to a specific orientation. In doing so, the sculptural façade geometry creates an interesting play of materiality, with the tonal elements changing depending on the viewer's standpoint. In addition, the scheme includes two residential units with a dedicated entrance on King's Scholars' Passage to the rear. The eight-storey, 6224sqm (GIA) hotel includes a relaxing bar, food retail, café and formal restaurant, available to the public as well as guests.
The hotel, featuring a unique façade design, will become the latest addition to client 4C Hotel Group's growing portfolio of high-quality central London hotel developments. It retails for $119,900.Hospitality design expert Dexter Moren Associates (DMA) has won planning permission for a new, 137-key boutique lifestyle hotel on Vauxhall Bridge Road in the heart of Victoria. The 40mm watch with domed sapphire crystal is not a limited edition but is limited only by the annual production abilities of H. The allure of the different finishes, with the markers and hands against the all-black dial are a great package, but add to that the constantly rotating flying tourbillon in the automatic HMC 804 mechanical movement and displayed at 6:00 on the dial, and it is an exceptional work of horology and technology.
While this was a great solution to a puzzling challenge, it also created an interesting multi-dimensional effect, since the indexes seem to disappear when the watch is viewed from certain angles.Īs mentioned, this is the first Streamliner with Vantablack® dial to be crafted in 18-karat 5N rose gold with integrated bracelet and alternating polished and satin-finishes. Those markers were then put into place from behind so that they would be flush with the dial. As such, the dial was made with holes formed for the markers. If the markers were placed on top of the dial, the highly delicate carbon nanotubes beneath would disintegrate from the pressure. In fact, it was one of the biggest challenges the watchmakers faced. H Moser & Cieīecause the Vantablack dial is actually created of thousands of tiny nanotubes, creating a watch with indexes or markers was no easy feat.
