Brian Dryburgh<br />
DIRECTOR<br />
Having been in the industry since 1986, Brian<br />
has accumulated a wealth of professional<br />
experience, including multiple hotel projects in<br />
the UK, Middle East, Africa and the Asian subcontinent.<br />
His extensive experience includes learning and<br />
understanding a number of brand standards<br />
from 3 to 5 star properties. This exposure has<br />
led to Brian being involved in the development<br />
of brand standards for a variety of hotel<br />
operators as well as leading design teams in a<br />
number of hotel projects.<br />
Understanding and addressing the common<br />
complaints that occur in hotels, following Brand<br />
Standards and liaising with operators are key to<br />
the success of Black & White’s hotel designs.<br />
Brian’s ‘all-MEP disciplines’ background allows<br />
his input to all aspects of hotel design and<br />
has enabled Black & White commissions on<br />
projects with varying scopes - from AV/IT and<br />
Vertical Transport only to Electrical and full MEP<br />
services.<br />

Full MEP design for this 1.8 billion AED, upscale<br />
hotel. CFD analysis was utilised in the design<br />
of the hotel rooms and the link bridge. B&W<br />
completed the MEP design in just 15 weeks,<br />
producing over 1,300 drawings. Appointed in<br />
May 2008, this posed a massive challenge as the<br />
structural design was complete and construction<br />
had commenced. B&W can deliver large projects.
