This project, meticulously managed and executed by the SL2 team, enhances the fan experience and provides a state-of-the-art facility for club events and guest experiences.
The project involved extensive groundworks and the construction of robust footings to ensure a solid foundation. SL2 employed advanced timber frame construction techniques to create a durable and sustainable structure. The exterior of the building was finished with high-quality cladding, providing both aesthetic appeal and weather resistance.
A key aspect of the build was the installation of energy-efficient windows and doors, contributing to the suite’s overall thermal performance. Inside, the suite features professionally laid flooring and expertly crafted ceilings, enhancing both comfort and acoustics. Comprehensive insulation was installed throughout to ensure energy efficiency and a comfortable environment year-round.
The interior walls were meticulously lined out and finished with high-grade materials, ensuring durability and a premium look and feel. Skilled joinery work was integral to the suite’s interior design, providing bespoke fittings and fixtures that meet the highest standards of craftsmanship. Finally, the suite was decorated to reflect the club’s identity and provide an inviting atmosphere for guests.
