The project transformed an art-deco building in central London into a members-only work and leisure destination, aiming to combine the perks of a private club with those of a co-working office.

The 2,900-square-metre members’ club is located in a seven-storey block on Mortimer Street in Fitzrovia, and includes co-working spaces, restaurant. bars, lounges, gym and event spaces.

There are 180 desks across collaborative and private office spaces, as well as meeting rooms and printing facilities. Phone booths outside the offices provide a place for private calls.

The building, which had been been used as an office since the 1970s needed to be completely gutted before work began. A new elevator core was inserted and two new balconies were added to the top two floors.

Original wooden floors were uncovered and used in the bar and lounge spaces and an original terrazzo floor in the central stairwell where the original bannister was also restored. In the entrance lobby, an intricate mosaic has been mended and restored. Inspired by the building’s art deco heritage, the interiors feature original wooden floors, marble counters, oak-paneled walls, exposed terracotta ceilings, brass light fittings and cane doors.

Walls are painted in dusty pinks, greens and blues in keeping with the colours of the era.
