Scope of Project:
New Apple store in Regent Street
In 2004 Apple opened their first European store in one of the most famous shopping streets in the world, Regent Street in London.
The interior space is a 7.2-metre double-height grand hall and the interior front facade, with its full height arches clad in Portland stone, can be appreciated in its full extent.
Albion Stone supplied Jordans Basebed for the internal wall linings which was sympathetic to the historic nature of the building.
As a fourth generation family business, Albion Stone takes pride in its knowledgeable and dedicated workforce. By combining traditional craftsmanship with modern manufacturing techniques, we produce Portland Stone of the highest quality while minimising our environmental impact.
