Award-winning developer, Octagon Developments, has commissioned Haddonstone to manufacture the cast stone architectural components for its flagship scheme, Broadoaks Park.
Octagon, which recently won the gold award for Best Luxury Development at the WhatHouse? Awards 2023, enlisted Haddonstone to provide a broad range of façade stonework for the gated development in West Byfleet, Surrey, which comprises over 115 new build homes alongside 10 restored Listed buildings which have been converted into homes.
Haddonstone worked closely with Octagon’s in-house architects to design and manufacture each cast stone component with every architectural design handmade using both traditional and modern techniques. Haddonstone’s TecStone wet-cast material was chosen for the project, with each piece of stonework being produced in a classic Portland colour.
The requirements included bespoke porticos and stone door surrounds in a variety of styles. Cast stone window dressings were also produced including window surrounds, curved and straight window heads and windowsills. Further cast stone elements manufactured for the project included wall dressings such as string courses, cornices, copings and gable vents. Final finishing touches included bespoke Octagon cast stone accents featuring their iconic ‘O’ logo.
David McColl, chief buyer at Octagon, commented: “We have worked with Haddonstone for over 13 years and both companies are passionate about delivering excellent product and customer service. The market leader for architectural stone, Haddonstone offers quality products, built to last – once again synergising both companies”.
