Novus delivered the full bespoke lane furniture package for Hollywood Bowl's York venue, including custom-engineered ball return housings with integrated LED panel illumination, lane-side seating benches, scoring console surrounds, reception joinery and decorative wall panelling. A key challenge was engineering ball return units from scratch — the venue's layout required a bespoke solution rather than an off-the-shelf product — with all design, manufacture, delivery and installation coordinated within a fixed refit window to protect the venue's reopening date.
Hollywood Bowl required a complete lane furniture replacement for their York venue — ball return housings, seating, scoring console surrounds and decorative elements — specified to match the brand's updated interior guidelines. The ball return units required bespoke engineering because the venue's existing sub-floor configuration and lane dimensions did not accommodate a standard solution. All manufacture, delivery and installation had to be coordinated within a fixed refit window to protect the reopening date.
Novus designed and manufactured curved ball return housings with integrated LED panel illumination, built from scratch to fit Hollywood Bowl York's specific lane dimensions and sub-floor infrastructure. Each housing was delivered as a complete assembly — LED driver, diffuser panel and colour-matched surround — to minimise on-site fitting time. Lane-side seating benches were upholstered to Hollywood Bowl's specified materials, and scoring console surrounds were manufactured to match the brand's interior palette. All elements were produced through Novus's manufacturing network and installed by Novus-coordinated teams within the defined refit programme.
The complete lane furniture package — ball returns, seating, scoring consoles and decorative joinery — was delivered and installed on programme, allowing Hollywood Bowl York to open as scheduled. The bespoke illuminated ball return housings create a distinctive atmospheric environment that reinforces the brand's premium leisure positioning. Bespoke manufacture allowed a precise fit to the venue's existing infrastructure without structural modification to the building.
From initial brief to final installation — one team, one process, no loose ends.
