Oceana Watford
The multi room destination venue offers party-goers a number of unmatchable experiences over three floors. The venue incorporates two nightclubs, six bars, VIP suites and Smoking Terrace. Designed by Bignell Shacklady Ewing, the brief was to continue and strengthen the already hugely successful Oceana brand where all rooms reflect iconic cities from around the world.
WFC’s Project Manager, Mark Harris, commented: “This has been one of the most interesting and challenging Oceana nightclubs I have worked on as the building required extensive internal upgrading to suit the new layout. I am in no doubt that our in house team enabled us to be flexible and meet challenges of the project in order for us to deliver ahead of schedule and on budget. By managing many aspects of the fit-out in-house, we were able to ensure quality control and deadlines were consistently beaten”.
Brian Hawkins of Bignell Shacklady Ewing added to this: “This has been an exciting and challenging project for us. Although Oceana has a distinctive brand, each venue is slightly different and our brief here meant that we were able to create two new themes ‘Barcelona’ and ‘Russia’. The internal challenges of this site meant that completing this project ahead of schedule was a significant achievement for WFC.”
