Armed with the design brief of transforming an underutilised storage room into a welcoming and joyful space for young residents of the Thames Quarter build-to-rent development, interior designers Johnson Ribolla turned to Forbo Flooring Systems, with its flooring solutions ticking the boxes for colour and functionality.
Thames Quarter is a residential, build-to-rent development in Reading. Featuring 315 apartments, a cinema, private dining rooms and roof terraces, the emphasis was placed on creating a dynamic, ‘small town’ community. Johnson Ribolla, a creative architecture and interior design agency founded in London 2014, worked on the wider project, appointed to deliver the interior design scheme across the development.
Once construction had completed and residents had begun to move in, it became apparent that there was a higher volume of children than initially expected, with calls for a bespoke space to be created, allowing the younger residents to meet and play together safely.
