CASE STUDY ARCHITECT’S ACCOUNT

Office Fit Out at 1 Clarence Street Belfast

I

nnovation has always been the driver behind the progression of industry and business. It was the rise of the cotton industry from 1790 until 1830 which proved to be a great success for Belfast, with the first cotton mill in Francis Street. Another cotton mill was located in Donegall street and then more sprang up around the city. The cotton trade began to slump following the American war when raw materials stopped being supplied from America. This is when the linen mills sprang up, inheriting the innovation used to produced cotton and, more importantly, the new machinery helped to mechanise the new linen industry. The city thrived during this period of innovation and earned the nickname ‘Linenopolis’. It was out of these industries that the linen mills were created, large brick buildings with pitched roofs covered in slate. Internally, large roof trusses created open-plan spaces with iron columns supporting large timber floors with beefy floor joists. These buildings were built with pure function in mind, with the only beauty being derived from the hand of the craftsman.
