The use of a combination of some 745 bespoke and thousands of standard cast stone products has given the Nova Building in Bournemouth the impact and visual appeal necessary for a prime site in the town at an affordable cost. The mixed-use building, erected on the former C&A site, utilises almost every available metre, resulting in a complex and challenging shape. The focal point is a tower above the main entrance with a rebated ‘panel’ at parapet level, which provides decorative appeal in an art deco style to match nearby existing buildings, such as the 1930’s Maples building. A wide range of cast stone products were employed including pier caps pillar caps and coping stones.
