WHITE EAGLE LODGE

LEATHERHEAD, SURREY

Hampshire Brickwork was appointed as the brickwork contractor for White Eagle Lodge, Liss, Hampshire. The project has been widely celebrated, being featured in countless publications and winning awards. Comments regarding the brickwork include;

'The brickwork of the complex, with its dusty lime mortar and a datum line separating smooth and rough brickwork, is intended to echo the county’s underlying chalk geology. Water-cut bricks were used for the façade: smooth to all sides but one, which exhibits production track belt marks, left as a reminder of its manufacturing process. This is subtly expressed in projecting brick armrests to the benches in the eastern façade.'

'...the use of materials and treatments internally also became very technical: the use of textured brick to scatter sound and perforated ash (the pinholes so tiny they’re only visible up-close) acting in place of acoustic baffling.'
