Smithfield Car Park

CAR PARKS | ARCHITECTURAL FAÇADES

The vertical fins draw inspiration from the iconic Spitfire aircraft, honouring its Staffordshire born inventor and giving the car park a distinctive identity.

Formed from folded aluminium and finished in anodic silver and gold powder coated tones, the fins deliver durability and long term protection. Early pre construction support and value engineering enabled the design to meet both vision and budget, with folded plates reducing material waste.

Rainscreen panels were also installed to enclose the stair core of the 730 space car park, enhancing protection for users.

This multi-storey car park marks another major step forward in the Smithfield scheme. It is another example of how Genr8 continue to drive exemplary design standards at Smithfield. It will form an important piece of the masterplan to service not only current and future phases at Smithfield but the wider Hanley community.
