Details:
Another successful project completed with WFC. Manzi’s is a reimagination of the original which served Londoners for more than 70 years. With a heavy theme of the sea and seafood, this can be seen through the colour palette and design of the multiple materials installed on the project.
WB Simpson & Sons supplied and installed all floor finishes to the front of house areas including: wood flooring, marble mosaic, custom waterjet mosaic, pebble mosaic and custom hand-cut mosaics manufactured by Paul Marks (supplied by Solus). Controlling all floor finishes allowed WBS to ensure seamless transitions between differing materials. We also completed the stone vanity units and splashbacks to the WCs along with marble skirtings.
