In the heart of London’s prestigious Mayfair district, a remarkable triplex apartment underwent a comprehensive restoration to blend historical elegance with contemporary luxury. A centrepiece of this transformation was the creation of a bespoke brass and mirror installation, designed to enhance the apartment’s aesthetic appeal and cultivated sophistication.
The Challenge
This project required meticulous attention to detail to ensure that the interior designer’s vision was fully realised – seamlessly blending classic architectural elements with contemporary sophistication, while maintaining the integrity of the building’s historic character.
The Solution
To ensure the highest level of precision and client satisfaction, we provided our client with a curated selection of samples throughout the design process. This allowed for careful evaluation of finishes, particularly to guarantee accurate colour matching between the bespoke brass elements and surrounding materials. By involving the client at this stage, we were able to achieve a cohesive and harmonious final result that aligned perfectly with their vision.
The brass used in this installation was carefully hand-tinted to achieve the exact tone and depth of finish envisioned for the space. This artisanal process allowed for a level of nuance and character that simply isn’t possible with off-the-shelf materials. The result is a rich, warm patina that adds depth and sophistication, perfectly complementing the mirror elements and surrounding finishes.
The Result
As always with our projects at Pinnacle, precision is paramount. In this particular case, the intricate construction of the ceiling elements meant that every component had to be measured and executed to the millimetre to ensure a flawless fit for the mirror finish. There was no margin for error—but thanks to our meticulous planning and expert craftsmanship, everything aligned perfectly.
