Problem

Our commercial builder client is a hospitality venue specialist. We were engaged to assist turning an empty building into a bar / restaurant that needed a high-end finish to a specific design in a short time frame.

Solution

This project required a customised mezzanine floor and specialised engineering. We created an intimate dining space on the top level of the mezzanine, accessed by a feature steel with timber tread stair and custom balustrade. Below the mezzanine is a large, commercial-grade kitchen with a serving window, kitchen storage, and office space.

Materials included a stiffened steel mezzanine floor to minimise deflection, white powder-coated beams, steel stair and mid-landing with merbau timber treads, and a custom vertical bar-style balustrade. The result is a mix of polished, industrial, and coastal feels. We can’t wait to head down to Busso and enjoy a cold one in this incredible setting.

Outcome

This smart use of space delivers a multipurpose venue with visual appeal and accessible functionality – exactly what the client wanted.

If you want to increase the capacity of your hospitality venue without compromising the comfort of your patrons, a mezzanine fit-out like this needs to be your top menu item!

I have engaged Mezzstor many times over the years for steel and mezzanine projects in the hospitality sector, both here in Perth and in the South West.

From start to finish, their professionalism, flexibility, quality and attention to detail has been exceptional – having not only met our expectations but exceeding them on a regular basis!

Their team works efficiently, communicates well and is used to working around live environments ensuring minimal disruptions to our clients.

I have no hesitation to recommend Mezzstor, they are my trusted go to contractor and I look forward to working on more projects closely with them in the future!
