    This project required overall cohesion while managing multiple brand stakeholders each with their own exacting brand requirements.

Aesthetics

The simple curved detailing of the 521 lever handle is both aesthetically elegance and practical, fulfilling the brief for all areas of this project.

Finish

Satin Stainless Steel was chosen for most areas of the building both as a practical solution for easy maintenance and to work alongside the chosen colour pallets for each area.
