The Trafford Centre required specialist decorative finishes at scale: real leaf gilding, marbling and stone effects that could withstand public use while matching an opulent interior language.
North West Murals Ltd was entrusted with marbling of the new dining area in The Great Hall and related gilding programmes across the centre.

Marbling and decorative paint effects in The Great Hall dining area, including the staircase and stone-effect finishes that carry through the public rooms.
