Kingston Building was awarded the contract for the refurbished premises for the Nissan franchise in Cardiff.
The project consisted of converting an open car warehouse into new facilities including sales offices, ultramodern customer service areas and a feature display showroom. As is the case with many conversion of existing buildings, the structure is sound but renovations raise some challenges to present a contemporary and highly functional environment for clients and staff.
The design evolved to complement the building and relied heavily on the team’s persistence, innovation and knowledge of modern building technologies to ensure the best product was delivered.
The finishes achieved are testament to overall success of the project with new full height frameless shopfront windows, floor to ceiling tinted glass throughout, tiled floors, feature timber ceilings and seamless external cladding to complement Nissan’s largest cantilevered signage structure built to date.
Externally, works included a new concrete surface for the car yard, new parking facilities and the design of a new lightweight steel structure to accentuate the Nissan’s corporate signage.
