C+W were commissioned to reimagine the primary entrance of the North's Leagues and Services Club, delivering a dynamic and inviting experience for visitors. Our design encompassed a comprehensive transformation of the building facade, porte-cochere, and drop-off area, along with the refurbishment and extension of the club’s cafe, which now features a stunning external terrace adjacent to the new entrance.

The design objective was to craft an engaging and memorable entry sequence. Central to this vision is a striking ribbed structure, enhanced by an intelligent pixel-mapped lighting system that animates the facade. The incorporation of a cascading water feature and a prominent LED screen further amplifies the visual appeal, creating a vibrant and lively atmosphere.

We harmonized earthy materials such as sandstone and granite cobble with a sleek white structure and roof, achieving a modern aesthetic that remains warm and inviting. The interplay of natural textures with contemporary design elements ensures a sophisticated yet approachable ambiance, welcoming guests with a sense of both elegance and comfort.

The reimagined entry and cafe area now stand as a testament to C+W’s commitment to innovative design and exceptional guest experiences, blending functionality with striking visual elements to redefine the club's identity.
