Original Brief:

Following purchasing an existing bar located on Mayor Magrath Drive in Lethbridge, the client wanted to transform the establishment into a unique British Pub.

Solution:

The initial concept form the Kingsmen Ale House renovation design was inspired by an old exclusive British gentleman’s club. Traditionally members, businessmen and pillars of the community who would need to be invited to join by other members would gather to converse and discuss matters of the day, network and perform business transactions among themselves. Therefore, it was essential to the client that guests at the Kingsmen Ale House should feel relaxed and at ease with the warmth of an inviting, cozy and traditional setting. With extensive use of wooden mill-work detailing, larger-scale furniture and warm lighting, we created a design that filled the client’s brief. Rather than the often-used “tavern” feel, we strived to create a space that might have been considered an establishment for the higher classes at the time. As a result, The Kingsmen Ale House is a diverse space that appeals to and caters to all ages and walks of life with craft beer,  great food and a welcoming atmosphere.
