Quiet start for Ruislip new high school
Academic life at Ruislip High School is very quiet because a selection of specially developed acoustic damping products from Ecophon have been employed throughout the various interior spaces.
Riding a wave with the architectural S-line tile
Architect in charge at Ashton Sixth Form College made full use of Ecophon's innovative architectural ceiling tiles.
The design consultant responsible for specifying Ecophon products as a key element to the acclaimed new interiors was WDR and RT Taggart, the architectural consultancy that first created the complex.
This practice had successfully employed Ecophon products on other leisure centres in the past, such as at Coleraine, and they were considered the obvious choice for the refurbishment of Antrim Forum, constructed back in 1970.
Although the original tiles were kept in the corridor areas, all the individual facilities - the dramatic spaces - have been fitted with Ecophon ceilings.
Wing has been used in the dance studio, then the Quadro concave and S-line in the children's soft play room.
Both Focus S-Line and Ecophon's Quadro Concave products appear in the refurbished fitness suite.
While such attributes as acoustic performance, low maintenance, durability and aesthetic flexibility, Ecophon's products were influential on the specification process.
The Ecophon range is in harmony with the strong emphasis placed on environmental issues across Northern Ireland.
Everyone is delighted with the way the project has turned out. Request a free brochure from Ecophon ...
