When considering the design aesthetics of a new office interior, most people admire the cool decoration, the funky furniture, the functional storage and the great new floors.
But few people consider the humble ceiling and how it can play an important part in bringing the project together. Lowering the ceiling in a tall environment can make the development cosier and friendlier. Sometimes however the opposite can be true.
We’ve seen plenty of examples of suspended ceilings stifling the space and being quite oppressive. Stripping back to basics is not only quite on trend these days but can give a much greater sense of freedom in lower height environments.
Acoustics too are also often affected by ceilings and require sensitive design to ensure that this does not become a problem either with noise echoing around an area or indeed causing so much ‘hubbub’ as to make working in an environment difficult.
We can provide ceiling design solutions for all requirements, whether it’s a standard grid system for the open plan, or a more specialist application for a WC or wet room. If an engineered or non-standard ceiling is required we can offer a wide range of solutions, which can range from the simple enhancement of an item through to products offering dimensional, performance and visual flexibility.
For the more modern, contemporary look there is the option for a canopy ceiling with panels anchored to the ceiling or wall with a simple cable system, hovering in seeming defiance of gravity.
We can create sculptural configurations – from simple accents to signature statements – in a variety of interesting colours, sizes and textures, achieving an exciting custom look using standard components.
In summary, ceilings play a major part in any design and with us the sky’s the limit! Contact us for further information.
