Club Room

Worthington designed the club rooms to feel like "a more prosperous and solid-looking London Athenaeum Club," and the Club room delivers precisely that atmosphere. Beautifully finished oak-panelled walls meet intricate ceiling plasterwork, with a stunning marble fireplace commanding attention as the room's centrepiece.

That marble fireplace genuinely anchors the room, creating a focal point that defines seating arrangements and draws guests toward its warmth. Combined with the ceiling plasterwork, it represents Worthington's vision of refined club life.
