             | Aliva UK creates bespoke facade combination for boutique hotel's penthouse |  
             |  |  
             | Aliva UK created a bespoke facade for the penthouse of Leven Hotel in central Manchester, combining squirrel grey aluminium rainscreen cladding with EWI and Victorian green ceramic slips. The gradient of the 84-degree slope gives the aluminium cladding a trapezoidal contour, adding to the unique appearance of the building that retains its place in the neighbourhood. |

             | Modern paving complements Bellway Homes HQ |  
             |  |  
             | Bellway Homes has relocated to a new purpose-built headquarter office building. With light and spacious office space, the move was the perfect opportunity to support the company’s growth. The facility houses 100 staff members and include high-spec welfare facilities including a gym and a roof terrace. Benefitting from a rich landscape setting with long ranging views through 360 degrees, the overall design concept was to create a park. |
