Oceana was a large capacity nightclub that had become a bit dated and tired. It had a big club area plus a pre-dance drinks bar that didn’t work, a restaurant that didn’t work, and a Parisian themed boudoir room with crushed velvet that looked dated and tired. There was no seating throughout the club, which allowed for 1000 capacity, but most customers were students buying cheap drinks. The challenge was to transform the nightspot into a multi-room club with a new VIP service for customers.
DV Architects provided a full design and build service introducing the latest light and sound technology, a DJ set area, booth seating and modern lighting. The VIP service enabled customers to book ahead, jump the queue and enjoy a booth with table service from a dedicated member of staff for the evening. The venue also offered Curve - a more intimate room playing the latest R&B chart tracks and Vinyl - a disco room playing retro tunes with a flashing dance floor, plus a private party room, available to book. The club immediately attracted a new audience with a higher spend.
