Commercial Project

In The Jackson Library, Exeter College, University of Oxford library we completed a full fit-out with library bookcases, study desks, internal doorsets, two new staircases and a finely crafted timber balcony made with slatted panelling in solid oak. These prominent installations will potentially be in place for hundreds of years, blending timeless beauty with a high level of functionality; they now form the heart of this historic building created in 1857 by architect George Gilbert Scott next to Convocation House, the Grade I-listed historic court room of the Bodleian Library. The project was completed to an extremely tight programme and required a high level of design input and collaboration.
