A touch of class for Perth's iconic racecourse facility

One of Australia's oldest horse racing venues, the iconic Ascot Racecourse in Perth WA, has recently had a major refurbishment to the interiors of the grandstand members' facilities to move them into the 21st century and cater for a more contemporary patronage. The refurbishment needed to be sensitive to the old building but give visitors a sense of glamor through the use of aesthetic materials which would create wow factor.

The designers, Webster+Allan, specified SUPAWOOD products as their range offered perfect lining solutions to achieve the unique design concept. The versatile finish options allowed them to match to other elements being used. Supawood were able to advise alternative finishes to fit within the client's budget.

For the open lounge area of the main Members' Floor, Supaslat MAXI BEAM have been used to form interesting crisscrossing chunky features on the ceiling. These shapes have been partially mirrored on the walls and in some places they form open screens to create a flowing connection through to more intimate lounge areas. The light weight of Maxi Beam made these effects easy to achieve.

To minimize cost, an economical Light Tasmanian Oak laminate has been chosen. The concept timber finish compliments the furnishings without compromising the effect of heavy timber beams. Integrated lighting and other services have been placed between the beams.
