About
Located on Manchester Ship Canal at the heart of Media City, Green Rooms is a stunning landmark residential building, right on the waterfront.

The urban landscape fed into the design narrative by reflecting local building forms, patterns and lighting, and interpreting this into furniture, fittings and finishes.

We wanted the emotional feel of the spaces to be relatable to a broad demographic and yet remain sophisticated and strongly linked to the neighbourhood. We wanted to create a relaxing and hospitable feel in the spaces at the back of the building so residents could shelter and hunker down, away from the hustle and bustle of the entrance space.

We distilled all of these influences into our design concept so that the amenity spaces feature a contemporary material palette, whose linearity reflects the local architectural language, together with a softening of those clean lines via organic shapes and texture from woven patterns and perforation, as well as the tactility of rugs and throws.

“We are delighted with the result of 74’s design concept. The design links all aspects of the local landscape to ensure The Green Rooms is identifiably unique, providing residents with practical yet impressive elements. We are proud to have partnered with 74 on our primary BTR scheme. From conceptualisation to reality, the design is inherently modern and adds character, also complementing our large contemporary frescoes”
