The client’s brief was to create a multipurpose building that would provide a location to share with others his passion for climbing. Both inside and out this multi-tiered building focusses on the 8m high climbing wall. As you progress up the building the spaces become more about relaxation with a large lounge set at the top of the building.
To ensure wider appeal a bar and brewery are included at ground floor level together with a retail space focused on the sale of adventure equipment. The remaining space is occupied by the Lonestar restaurant making this building a destination in itself.
The building is stripped back in terms of materials with simple insulated concrete sandwich panels and aluminium sandwich roof providing both structure, enclosure and finishes.
