The Minories Hotel, Aldgate

This recently completed project sees the first Canopy by Hilton open it’s doors to guests in Aldgate London.

Commissioned by the client, 4C Hotel Group in January 2017 to work on the largest hotel project in their portfolio, Colorminium worked on a façade strategy starting with optimisation through to developing the detailed design of the façade with Acme architects from RIBA stage 2.

This early engagement enabled us to realise the vision of celebrating the existing façade with a bespoke feature fin system that clad the existing pre-cast frame, to give it the stunning finish we see today.

This video captures our journey with the Client and Architect on another stunning landmark scheme – working together to build a sustainable future for London.

100 Liverpool Street – Arcade Soffits – New Photos Released

British Land’s 100 Liverpool Street development is now a thriving hub of activity, as the benefits of this award winning, net zero carbon building, are experienced by so many every day.

Along with the stunning Atrium that we were pleased to complete for them, we also contributed to the 90,000 sq ft of new shops, restaurants and gym, by delivering some large curved soffits throughout the retail areas.

The soffits lead you through the Mall, across all three levels, with the gentle curves and crisp precision further enhancing the look and feel of this prestigious building.

It was excellent to be involved in this project.

Setting a new Foundry in the Heart of Hammersmith

A look back at the architectural excellence we helped achieve at The Assembly Building (The Foundry) in the Hammersmith. You would have to know where and what you are looking for to find it though. Hidden behind a retained facade in which British artist Alex Chinneck collaborated with steelworkers, engineers and brickmakers to create “Six Pins and Half a Dozen Needles”, an artwork designed to look like a giant crack in the wall of the brickwork – you’ll find the beautiful facade of The Assembly. Now hosting a number of organisations and offering a flexible office arrangement with great facilities and access to all that Hammersmith has to offer with it’s close proximity to the City.

Progress onsite on the South of the River

Post shared from Structuretone

Fantastic progress at our Southwark Bridge Development Project with the facade making good headway.

Last week, the Tower Crane that occupied the existing central lift core since August 2019, was removed. The crane was critical for bringing heavy mechanical plant to the roof, constructing the roof, rear and front extensions, as well the installation of new glazing and cladding packages.

Achieving this highly complex exercise, whilst safety social distancing presented a number of challenges. Together with HTC / WOLFFKRAN and JCC, we designed a suitable solution – Following the successful road closure, the team used a mobile crane, located on Southwark Bridge Road, to remove sections of the tower crane, piece by piece, and safely lowered them into a controlled cordoned-off zone at ground level.

The team, will now begin the installation of the remaining elevators in the central core, whilst continuing to drive the internal fit out towards section 1 handover.
