Situated atop the flagship Decathlon store, Locker’s Multi Use Games Area (MUGA) at Canada Water, South London provides a centrepiece for the new Project Light residential and retail development. Locker utilised Coburg 12-12-12-12 spiral mesh for the enclosure walls.

Woven from 316 grade stainless steel, the spiral pattern forms an architecturally refined texture to compliment the surrounding surfaces. The spiral mesh was installed under tension to allow a clear vertical span of 7 metres to be achieved.

Locker also provided the Dyneema® ball-stop netting to the roof and inner curtains.

Coburg 12-12-12-12 Architectural mesh is a Codina Architectural product, supplied and distributed in the UK by Locker Architectural.

About the Project

Soho XL powder coated expanded metal car park façade at Sainsburys Brentwood. The main façade is designed to appear as a seamless, randomly undulating ribbon of mesh. In reality the mesh panels are carefully designed to avoid any visible panelisation or connection. Curved metal banding seamlessly holds the panels in place.

Two additional flat clad headlight screens covered in similar expanded metal bands are designed to mimic the main façades, and protect nearby housing from intrusive car headlights. The deceptive curvilinear form provides an elegant architectural screen, which economically both enhances and disguises the functional steel frame behind.
