Equans

Issues

As part of the refurbishment of Equans’ offices in La Défense, the architectural firm Maud Caubet had to deal with the acoustics of numerous meeting rooms spread over 11 floors, while maintaining a unity of tone and a differentiated design for each space.

The challenge was to find a high-performance, aesthetic and environmentally-friendly acoustic solution that could be adapted to all configurations and installed in a very short timeframe.

Solutions

To meet this requirement, Arteck Design proposed a custom solution based on the Macao acoustic panel, which perfectly met the project’s criteria:

• Acoustic wall panels in compact 12 mm rPET fiber, a 100% recycled and recyclable material, guaranteeing optimum sound absorption.
• Custom-made grooved patterns, designed by the architect, to differentiate each meeting room while maintaining visual consistency.
• Custom-made in France, ensuring perfect adaptation to the specific dimensions of each space.
• Fast, efficient installation, facilitated by the cuttable format of Macao panels, enabling precise adjustment to suit requirements.

Results

Thanks to this solution, Equans meeting rooms now offer optimum acoustic comfort, promoting clear, pleasant exchanges.

The sober, elegant aesthetic, with beige ceilings and walls enlivened by discreet grooves, lends a unique identity to each space while maintaining overall harmony.

Rapid production and ease of installation enabled us to meet the project’s tight deadlines, ensuring efficient implementation that perfectly matched the architects’ vision.
