The Challenge
Founded in 1815, the Royal Yacht Squadron is one of the most prestigious and exclusive yacht clubs in the world, and enjoys a rich history comprising more than 200 years.
In keeping with its royal acclaim and prestige, any renovation work must be completed to the very highest of standards, tastefully complementing the club’s stature and heritage.
Our Solution
Working very closely with Modh Design, we have been able to find solutions for the club to modernise its space for guests, while retaining its historic charm and opulence. A new, open bar area in the club’s pavilion has been among the many projects we have delivered, alongside new toilet facilities and general upkeep of the castle, originally built in 1539.
"At Modh, we have worked alongside WH Brading on a number of successful projects over the past decade, including the Royal Yacht Squadron."
The Outcome
The final result of this renovation was delivered to the exacting standards such a historic institution demands. It is a beautifully preserved and modernised space that our entire team is incredibly proud to have worked on.
"The projects varied considerably in their size and type and each with its own challenges. WH Brading's deep knowledge of both traditional and modern building techniques make them a compatible contractor for us to work alongside and they respect the architectural intent of the design we generate and can help deliver our vision to reality."
