1. Manchester United - Brintons Carpets Ltd. : 1-1
Old Trafford
Manchester United is valued as the biggest football club in the
world and its Old Trafford stadium – affectionately known as the
Theatre of Dreams – is comfortably the biggest in the English
Premier League, with seating for 76,000 spectators.
When the stadium was redeveloped to increase its capacity and
improve the facilities available to spectators, Brintons was
commissioned to design and supply carpet for the new
executive boxes that were constructed between the bottom and
top tiers of the East Stand at Old Trafford.
Area: 625m2 Axminster carpet
St Pancras Renaissance Hotel, London
The Grand Midland Hotel at St Pancras Station in
London once stood proudly as the most impressive
hotel in London.
With spectacular Gothic-Revival architecture, the
hotel set a new standard in luxury and comfort.
However, when the hotel closed its doors in 1935, it
gradually fell into a state of disrepair and even lay
totally abandoned for more than 10 years.
But when the Manhattan Loft Corporation decided to
undertake a £150 million renovation of the building
and re-open it as a 5-star Marriott hotel, the
property entered a new and exciting phase in its
life.
GA Design International, the appointed interior
design firm, specified Brintons as the exclusive
carpet supplier and it was officially commissioned to
work on the prestigious project after winning a
competitive tender.
Area: 15.000m2 of Premium-Quality Axminster
