Chaplains’ Museum Open

We are delighted that our Royal Army Chaplains’ Museum will be open to the public from 1.30pm tomorrow (Thursday 19th May 2022).

 

The museum is housed in a striking and sustainable single storey LVL timber frame construction providing carefully framed views of its setting, with a minimal environmental footprint courtesy of passive solar design, high levels of natural hemp insulation, energy-efficient services, sedum roof and significant levels of carbon sequestration.

 

You can find more details, including directions and opening hours, on the museum’s website.

Super 3 Launch

We were thrilled to attend the launch of the new Morgan Super 3 in our Morgan Experience Centre last evening.

 

Following the online reveal of Super 3, Morgan formally unveiled the model at the event hosted by Jonny Smith (The Late Brake Show, Fifth Gear), Steve Morris (Chairman & CEO), Jonathan Wells (Head of Design) and Toby Blythe (Head of Marketing). Following the unveiling, guests had the opportunity to get up close and view the three launch cars in more detail.

 

There is a short video of the event on YouTube.

Morgan Works London

We are delighted to have completed the Morgan Motor Company‘s newest dealership in London, spearheading the company’s retail transformation. The destination showroom, Morgan Works London – situated in the district of Kensington – is equipped to sell both new and used Morgan cars, as well as offering an aftersales capability backed up with factory resource.

 

Following extensive redevelopment – the style of which mirrors our recently opened Morgan Experience Centre at the company’s Malvern home – the dealership features use of Morgan’s core materials: wood, leather, and aluminium, in its design. The space includes a ‘speccing pod’, gallery room with feature lighting inspired by traditional coachbuilding techniques, and can display up to five vehicles. It welcomes new and existing Morgan customers, while also serving as a brand touchpoint for Morgan enthusiasts.

Chaplains’ Museum Nears Completion

We are pleased to report that our new museum for the Royal Army Chaplains is now nearing completion.

 

The shell and core are now finished and the fit-out will begin in the New Year ready for an anticipated opening in Easter 2022.

 

As this images shows, the landscape is an integral part of the design and careful consideration has been given to minimise the impact on the environment through measures like the biodiverse green roof, whilst working within the confines of the site which include an existing watercourse and established estate trees.

 

The end result is a striking and sustainable single storey LVL timber frame construction providing carefully framed views of its setting, with a minimal environmental footprint courtesy of passive solar design, high levels of natural hemp insulation, energy-efficient services and significant levels of carbon sequestration.
