London: Eight Members Club
July 30, 2009
By Nicole Robinson
New rooftop Eight Members Club located in Finsbury Square is set over two floors of terraces and features a reception, dining room, lounge, library and meeting room set against the backdrop of the stunning London skyline.
Brandon Kinsman, owner of Eight Members Club, worked with Steven Owen, a designer with joinery and metal workshop Benchmark, to create the interiors. Brass, dark oak, rippled glass and leather in shades of pewter, plum and forest green have been incorporated throughout the club.
The central ribbed banquette seating is topped with reeded glass screens and brass detailing. The table in the private dining room is solid dark oak with leather inlay. Leather has also been used on the tops of a range of coffee and sofa tables and waiter stations.
On the sixth floor, a polished pewter bar creates a focal point for the bar area, which is separated from the lounge with acoustic screens with pleated silk lower panels and reeded glass upper panels that allow light to flow through.
The library has high gloss lacquered desks, and an innovative high gloss lacquered "charging station" that allows clients to lock away their laptops while charging them.
