Dukes 92, Castlefield canal basin

Client. L R Leisure
Contract Value. £500K

Dukes 92 is one of Manchester’s most successful and famous day and nigh time venues.

The brief was to update the internal decor, provide a striking food display, convert a first floor area into a multipurpose cocktail/function room with a new cantilevered balcony to overlook the canal-side terrace, along with a new glass rear entrance lobby.

The interior was addressed with a nod to Manchester’s rich industrial past. The metal bar and matching back bar displays providing a robust , then cosy seating bays and antique furniture provided both a counterpoint and comfort to a wide age group and a balance to the harder elements.
