n Thought 2 : Visibility to the gardens.
                  Execution  :  Large  glazings  were  planned
                overlooking  the  club  gardens.  The  mullions  and
                transoms  were  dimensioned  to  avoid  any  visual
                barrier while sitting or standing. This in addition to
                planning a 5’ x 13’ balcony cantilevering over the
                greens.

                n Thought 3 : “Never before seen bar
                counter” with increased bar seating.
                  Execution: A bar counter can be romanticised as
                one location within any bar which permits intimate
                conversations.  The  geometry  of  the  counter  was
                conceived to allow these communion, sometimes
                even  undisturbed  by  the  bar  tender.  The  fluidity
                was  developed  by  laminating  296  unique  ply
                profiles, each being 24 mm thick. The texture of the
                profiles was further enhanced by the the inherent
                laminates of the ply.
