bronze-toned details for the peninsula hotel in london

The Peninsula London, located adjacent to Hyde Park and Green Park, offers stunning views of the gardens of Buckingham Palace and features 190 luxurious hotel rooms as well as exclusive private residences. The façade is distinguished by its striking details: patinated brass frames at all entrances and windows give the building a timeless elegance.
 

patinated brass details

All the unitised window elements of the façade are finished in an elegant bronze tone using both anodised aluminium and patinated brass. A notable highlight is the pattern of individual rings engraved into the window units. The frames of the canopies, which are up to 30 m wide and 8.2 m deep, are complemented by large-format glazing, enhancing the luxurious appearance of the façade.

seele’s expertise in material craftsmanship enhances the brass features

Copper alloys such as bronze and brass play a central role in façade construction, valued for their durability and refined aesthetic. seele has mastered not only the processing of these premium materials but also special techniques like patination and surface treatment. 

Utilising advanced joining techniques such as welding, brazing and innovative methods like friction stir welding and laser deposition welding, seele realises complex and aesthetically demanding projects with brass façades. Through precise material coordination and surface treatments such as grinding and patination, seele creates brass façade systems that are visually striking, durable and resilient.

seele’s expertise enables the development of complex façade systems that meet the highest aesthetic and functional standards. Other projects such as the Eaton Centre Bridge in Toronto, St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art demonstrate seele’s ability to execute innovative solutions for contemporary brass façades.
