H&R JOHNSON

Railston worked with FIRST designers and H&R Johnson on an ambitious design to create a surfacing materials showroom for ‘specifiers who hate showrooms’. A radical approach was vital to attract contemporary architects and designers. Railston worked closely with FIRST to ensure the finished result was true to the concept visuals.

The ‘Lab’ is divided into a dry zone at the front and at the back an atrium featuring the wet zone with a sauna and Jacuzzi. A 4m high waterfall runs over a backdrop of tiles which continue into a section of clear glass and then into a stainless steel bath containing a gas fire!

The lower floor is divided into storage, meeting room, kitchen, office and a further space for hospitality. There is also an unexpected treat with the back area fitted out as Great Titchfield Tube station.

Railston won the prestigious Shopfitting Excellence award for this site at the 2006 Retail Interior awards.
