DaVinci's
Hotel, Derry
This project involved building a bedroom block
on to an existing restaurant in Derry. Loughrey Agnew Architects
incorporated into the design, a combination of architectural Portland
wet-cast units and buff reconstituted
buff sandstone.
The elements supplied in Portland wet-cast
included cills, string courses and large moulded entablatures, some
of which are curved. Buff reconstituted sandstone was used at the
main entrance of the hotel for columns and curved cladding, entablatures
units above the columns.
The result is a striking combination of white Portland stone and
buff sandstone which contrast beautifully with the vibrant colours
of the rendered walls.
