We\u2019re extremely proud to have been involved in this iconic, award-winning project with the supply of our Petrarch reconstituted stone rainscreen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For a building with such status and heritage, both St George PLC<\/a> and tp bennett<\/a> turned to rainscreen and framing solutions which would not only capture exactly the right image and retain the splendour of a bygone age, yet stand up to the most demanding requirements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Ealing has long been synonymous with British cinema. The former Art Deco Empire Cinema, originally designed by John Stanley Beard, is a key heritage asset and a landmark for the Filmworks development. From the outset, we took care to sensitively restore and carefully integrate the retained fa\u00e7ade of the cinema building with the new commercial accommodation at ground floor and residential above. This involved extensive co-ordination with the building conservation specialists and detailing of the interface between the existing elevation and the new building. The use of a reconstituted stone rainscreen cladding and black glazed bricks complement the cinema\u2019s existing faience and stonework along with open metal work frames mimicking the existing railings. The newly integrated fa\u00e7ade is given further prominence with subtle uplighting at night.’ Jim Arthur.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\nPetrarch reconstituted stone rainscreen & Downer Framing take the limelight\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

Awards. In the frame…<\/strong><\/p>\n

Downer Framing is also in the running in this year\u2019s Facade Awards 2022, in conjunction with premium quality facade solutions, including Swisspearl fibre-cement cladding panels and Petrarch reconstituted stone rainscreen facade.<\/p>\n

The Filmworks actually features a trilogy \u2013 Petrarch and two of Downer\u2019s framing systems.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Filmworks, in the London Borough of Ealing, which has been shortlisted in the Best Refurbishment Project category, features Downer\u2019s DCS031 HELPING HAND\u00ae framing system and DCS004 secret fix system, alongside Petrarch reconstituted stone rainscreen facade.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Set behind the retained historic art deco facade of Ealing\u2019s former Empire Cinema, the \u00a3100 million mixed-use regeneration scheme comprises more than 200 new homes overlooking a central square, lined with bars and restaurants, and featuring a double- height entrance foyer to the eight-screen Picturehouse Cinema, the biggest outside London\u2019s West End.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Petrarch reconstituted stone facade and Downer framing systems were specified by architects TP Bennett, predominantly for their recyclability, sustainability and high durability, and they were installed by specialist sub-contractor Richardson Roofing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Richardson Roofing\u2019s contracts coordinator Krissy Dawson said: \u201cThe team really do know their products well and were very helpful. Despite this being a somewhat difficult site with delivery booking requirements, they worked with us to optimise logistics for just-in-time deliveries.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
