Cumberland, London
Brief: Transformation of the 1000 room Cumberland Hotel in London.
Background: To accurately plan the requirements in advance, we worked as partners to the architects, Unwin Jones Partnership, to develop an on-site sample room which was rolled out through the whole hotel. Ultimately the success of the project was due to the accuracy and quality of materials supplied by a responsive, client-focused team.
What we made
- Headboards
- Desks
- Dressing tables
- Chest of drawers
- Mini-bar & hospitality units
- Tables
To avoid the risks of shipping from outside the UK, we wanted to select a British Manufacturer, and Curtis are one of the few with the capacity to supply bespoke case goods for 1,000 rooms over a 12-month project. Our relationship with Curtis goes back over 20 years. We needed to choose an expert partner we could trust to turn around the room refurbishments in a timely manner and with minimal disruption, as the hotel remained fully operational throughout."
