CGTWORKS services: Construction of the Iris Ceramiche flagship showroom in East London
Construction of the Iris Ceramiche flagship showroom in East London.
For this project, our clients required full transformation of a disused three-storey warehouse-style office into the flagship store of a multinational company.
We were the main contractors for the project managing the budget, schedule of works and timeline. The showroom included the construction of five “display bathrooms”, a downstairs water feature, glazing throughout, including paneling and bespoke glass stairs. Upstairs we installed offices and meeting rooms for the company in a modern and contemporary style including a record room and lighting wall.
The result is a stunning showpiece of design which was finished, as scheduled, in time for the famous Clerkenwell Design Week. It has now become famous as a destination for architects, used as a networking and meeting place in an inspiring location in London’s hip Shoreditch district.
