EUROTUNNEL Customer Lounges

Location: Calais, France and Folkestone, UK

Expertise Areas: Architecture

The project is for the construction of a singlestorey building on each Eurostar Terminal which will be dedicated to Eurotunnel passengers. These two buildings will be identical in terms of design and fitting out. However, they will comply with the specific regulations applicable in each country. In the UK as in France, the buildings will be constructed in the middle of the pre-allocation area. The building will include:

ƒ Toilets

ƒ Lounge areas

ƒ A lobby providing a small reception area

ƒ A self-service publications area (newspapers, magazines)

ƒ A dedicated service area for the hostesses

ƒ Ancillary areas with kitchen, storage, staff facilities etc.

The interior architecture will be as comfortable, welcoming and enjoyable as possible. The fitout will be modern, practical and spacious offering a calm, muted atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of the main terminal. The lounge will distinguish between the various special areas (family, business, children).
