University of Reading selected us for the delivery of SportsPark Cafe Project within the Whiteknights Campus.
This project delivered an internal refurbishment works resulting in conversion of an unused, existing cafe space into a fitness “Studio 3” to provide an additional space for classes. The site comprised a busy sports centre, located at the entrance to the main campus. During our delivery the remainder of the building stayed operational.
Our works included new ventilation and AC, acoustic ceiling and wall boarding work along with decoration, moving of entrance doors and forming of a new service cupboard, sports flooring and feature lighting and mirrors.
The feature lighting was especially important to the facility operators, as this allows them to create different atmospheres for high intensity workout classes compared to the calming effects needed for relaxation yoga.
Our sister company, Francis Joinery, delivered the carpentry works.
The client was pleased with the end product, the newly created space is not only available to students but has a large membership from the general public and is a very busy facility.
