Construction in timber provided a competitive alternative for this luxury car showroom. The design has a distinctive character in response to a demanding brief. Originally the space was to have included a suspended ceiling but this was omitted during construction, as the simplicity of the roof’s timber soffit was preferred by the client. It incorporates acoustic material, which, together with the timber frame, provides a pleasant atmosphere for doing business.
