Workplace and boardroom: joinery, acoustic finishes and integrated technology

A design direction for a workplace that represents the business with confidence: a reception that welcomes, and a boardroom where technology and acoustics are built in, not added on.

The challenge

What the space needed.

Boardrooms and receptions must look composed while hiding cabling, screens and acoustic treatment, and they have to be delivered with minimal disruption to the business.

Design intent

How it should feel.

Walnut panelling, travertine and soft neutrals. Acoustic finishes and AV integration are designed into the joinery so the room stays calm.
