The fan-vaulted ceiling was created using a point cloud survey.  The material used for this prestigious project had to be both hardwearing and durable; for these reasons we opted to use solid FSC European Oak. Throughout the construction of the ceiling we used a laminating process, which minimised waste and increased the strength of the timber.
