The clients’ brief in terms of practicality, flexibility and acoustic performance were key factors in determining the layout, finishes and overall aesthetic of the new PTL offices.  Acoustic panels are suspended beneath a dark exposed ceiling which houses a dense yet organised network of electrical cables and ventilation ducting. Vinyl carpet flooring and a high-spec server room further contribute to achieve an acoustical performance that complies with the IT company’s requirements.  Materials used throughout the lobby and common areas include herringbone cladding in natural oak and reflective black surfaces that provide the space with a warm and elegant ambiance.
