Refined Fusion of Luxury and Sustainability<\/h2> \n

Occupying a prominent corner in the heart of the City, 2 Gresham Street offers a refined, understated presence within London\u2019s financial district. The 10-storey, 180,000 sq ft office redevelopment, remodelled by Willmott Dixon, achieves a BREEAM Excellent rating while showcasing high-quality materials that align with the design vision of architects Buckley Gray Yeoman.<\/p>\n

Within the double-height reception, Armourcoat\u2019s luxury sustainable finishes create a seamless dialogue between texture and tone. Istria Polished Plaster<\/a>, applied to the high-level walls, introduces subtle movement and depth, complementing the marble-clad lower walls and flooring. Meanwhile, Acoustic Plaster<\/a>, in a pale grey tone from the brand\u2019s curated palette of 105 colors, extends across the walls and 3.2m-high ceiling, balancing aesthetics with acoustic performance.<\/p>\n

Istria<\/a>\u2014named after the natural stone used throughout Venice\u2014is a refined blend of slaked lime and recycled marble powder, offering a rich, organic texture. Designed to enhance the tranquility of expansive interiors, Armourcoat\u2019s Acoustic Plaster absorbs sound, reducing reverberation while maintaining the reception\u2019s calm and sophisticated ambience.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Armourcoat finishes were carefully selected to work in harmony with the marble chosen for the reception, and to compliment the palette of smoked oak, white marble and bronze. The natural, sustainable and high-quality credentials of Armourcoat made it a natural choice in such a prestigious project. The Acoustic Plaster particularly, with its sound absorption capability, helps create a softness to the atrium, making it a welcoming, calm environment.<\/p>\n\n
