Project

Pool deck refurbishment with upgraded paving, circulation and edge detailing for a hotel setting overlooking the urban coastline.

The Sebel refurbishment lifts a hotel pool deck that had aged out of its coastal setting back to a resolved, contemporary surface.

Upgraded paving, tightened circulation and clean edge detailing keep the deck durable under constant hotel use while framing the pool and outlook as the centre of the shared amenity.

The materials palette is built around 600 x 400 light grey granite as the deck field, 200 x 200 dark grey granite banding at the pool edge, and Artisan 'Whitehaven Sand' 40 x 40 glass mosaic on all vertical wet faces — with Jonite 'Chiselled Rain' pool grating, porcelain tactile indicators and 'Ash Marblano Grippa' porcelain tile to steps, foyer and unit-entry ramps.
