Philadelphia Cricket Club

Founded in 1854, The Philadelphia Cricket Club is one of America’s foremost private, family-oriented, full-service country clubs. As the nation’s oldest country club, it boasts a rich heritage in athletics and is dedicated to providing its members, families, and friends with exceptional recreational and social experiences. Recently, the club collaborated with EwingCole and fabricator Boyertown Planing Mill on a master planning process aimed at enhancing its St. Martins campus.

A key objective of the master plan was to elevate the dining experience at the St. Martins Club House, encourage social interaction among members, and expand the dining and bar seating capacity. To achieve a more relaxed and open floor plan, the team removed walls around the central bar, incorporating woven wire mesh to increase natural light and offer views of the Great Lawn.

The sliding partition doors feature Banker Wire M44-7 woven wire mesh with a plated antique brass finish, adding a luxurious touch to the interior decor. This woven metal diffuses light, maintaining an open feel while providing a partial space barrier. The antique brass finish complements the warm wood framing the mesh, creating an inviting ambiance.

The renovation, as a whole, exudes sophistication. The decor of the open bar area, combined with the mesh partitions, merges modern and refined elements. Dark wood tones, antique brass mesh, sleek lighting fixtures, and comfortable seating all contribute to an elegant dining atmosphere.
