Austen Miller: An Open Letter to Whitchurch

There has been some negative reaction to the wall on the corner of the chapel. The main concern being that it inhibits the view when exiting Test Road onto London Street. It is a requirement of planning that the wall exists and why it is as high as it is. Its purpose is to provide bin storage…

Another Brick in the Wall

There is a lot of work happening inside the chapel but, as you may have noticed, the exterior is also getting a lot of attention now. More of the aluminium cladding has been fitted, the ground works are underway and the brick enclosure at the front of the building is well on its way to…

A busy place to be

The chapel is a very busy place to be right now with a lot of different jobs happening simultaneously. Plastering has begun, electrics continue to be fitted, fire systems are being installed and lots of work is being done in preparation for the staircase installation, lighting and flooring. One of the most exciting moments recently…

Did you notice?

Happy new year everyone! We hope you all had a fantastic Christmas break, we know we certainly did. Have you noticed the new windows? In the last few days prior to the Christmas break the guys worked tirelessly to lift these massive windows into place. The side windows went in first as these were lighter…

A level playing field

It has been a very busy month at the chapel and the pace is continuing to quicken as we approach the end of the year. Last week saw the screed go down on the upper and lower floors which was an unusually rapid process. The screed mix that we opted for was MPA Liquid Screed…

Another Refurbishment..

The Chapel build isn’t the only thing getting a new look.. As a Product Design Consultancy, design is everything. From the way we want you to feel when you step into our office, to the motivation and inspiration our website should fill you with when you click on our logo. Which is why we have launched a BRAND NEW…

Bubblegum flavoured concrete anyone?

Now-a-days, construction companies are using scented form release agents to impart a pleasant smell in concrete, the most famous being bubble gum. We didn’t opt for this however. But now that the first floor is in place, it’s time to concrete it. Downstairs we have a beam and block combination and in order to duplicate…

Now you see it – Now you don’t

The Chapel may continue to look the same on the outside to most people, but there is a lot going on inside that you don’t see! Here’s an even closer look . Now you see it – Now you don’t.

Rooms for Improvement

With the steel beams being placed downstairs, you can really see the shape of the rooms come to life and start to imagine each one fully equipped and ready for business. But if you still can’t quite see it yet, take a look at the pictures below for some inspiration. And in each steel beamed room… With…

Meet Phil

Meet Phil, the Man the Myth the Legend! Phil prefers to stay behind the scenes but we thought it was important to introduce everyone to our extremely talented Site Manager for the Chapel Build. He always has a smile on his face. And isn’t afraid of a little hard work. Austen and Phil have been working…

Porch Life

  Everyone loves a before and after picture and although the porch isn’t finished just yet, we thought we would share a quick update with you. Before :   The dark black pointed frame gave the chapel a much older look and feel than we wanted, so we gave it a small lift.   The board going…

Side Profile

A picture can be quite deceiving, the expression ‘Don’t judge a book by its Cover’ really fits here. To the naked eye, the side extension of the Chapel looks rather small, its only when you it see from a different angle, and notice that a 6ft man in the door actually looks small in comparison, that…
