AP-HP
Ensuring acoustic comfort in the meeting rooms and amphitheatre of the new AP-HP headquarters.
Challenges
For its new headquarters, the AP-HP wanted an optimal acoustic environment in its meeting spaces. The ChartierDalix architecture and landscape agency which was in charge of the project, was looking for a French-made, high-performance, sturdy and simple solution that met the site’s standards.
The challenge was to adapt to the dimensions and technical elements such as a large retractable door, light fittings, etc.

Solutions
Murano panels glued directly to the surfaces and Porto ceiling slats rose to the challenge.
Not even the large retractable amphitheatre door, lights, video projectors and other technical elements in the meeting rooms stop Murano panels and Porto ceiling slats. All it takes is a simple cut-out, suitable fastenings and everything can be adapted in the blink of an eye.
In addition to their performance against noise pollution, their sturdiness ensures their durability under intensive use – and like all our solutions, they are made in France, in our manufacturing facility in the Lyon region.
Murano is simple in design, yet the bold midnight blue finish gives the treated spaces a distinctive aesthetic identity and brings style to the surfaces. As for Porto, its use in slatted form adds rhythm to the ceiling in question, while the light colour enhances the sense of height.
Results
Murano’s simplicity and effectiveness won over the site’s designers. With its large 12 mm rPET fibre panels which can be cut to shape and glued directly to walls and ceilings, Murano was easily scaled to the size of the meeting rooms to be soundproofed on both walls and ceilings.
Following a quick and durable installation, the meeting rooms and auditorium are ready for work sessions and presentations dedicated to improving public health, in a setting that is both elegant and conducive to exchange.
