Room acoustics meets coworking space (2/2)
In our last article we already reported about our acoustic solutions of the conference rooms of the coworking space Freiraum of Hartung GmbH & Co KG. The post is linked here: https://bit.ly/3s8WzxC. With our ideas and passion for effective room acoustics solutions, we have also completed the remaining areas of the open space.
The visually calm atmosphere of the open coworking areas as well as the offices is underlined by our highly absorbent ceiling panels apn® Vinta A. In order not to distract the users, our planner deliberately chose white ceiling panels in square and rectangular shapes. This means that work can now be carried out there in visual as well as acoustic peace.
If you are looking for active exchange, users have several areas at their disposal – including six kitchens. To ensure that the social areas are immediately visually recognizable, they are identified by our highly absorbent round ceiling panels apn® Vinta A Circle in different color schemes.
The social center of the 1,200-square-meter coworking space is the work café on the first floor. With our fabric-covered ceiling sails apn® Vinta F, the warm atmosphere of the room was taken up and reflected on the ceiling. The light gray and beige fabrics from our apn® Classic Soul fabric collection gently hug the absorbers, giving them a feeling of coziness, warmth and softness.
P.S.: There was simply no more room in this article for our apn® Forma F and apn® Regatta wall absorbers, which were also installed.
Room acoustics meets coworking space (1/2)
The coworking space Freiraum of the company Hartung GmbH & Co. KG in Neumünster houses open coworking areas, lockable offices and a wide variety of conference rooms. This coworking space provides future-oriented work in the most modern and diverse space environment and is a place for people with ideas and passion.
With our ideas and passion for effective room acoustics solutions, we have now completed the free space.
The creative and lively ceiling solutions of the conference and meeting rooms are inspired by the game of skill Mikado. Although the fabric-covered beige and light gray ceiling panels apn® Vinta F in combination with our white ceiling panels apn® Vinta A seem to float “wildly” above the conference tables, the arrangement of the elements follows careful planning.
In the large conference room, our planner enhanced the artistic acoustic object with our apn® Vinta F Lux Spot acoustic accent luminaires. This additional effective design option makes the room shine in a special way.
Thus, Hartung’s artistic and innovative corporate philosophy has been adapted down to the smallest detail of our acoustic solutions. More details on this project will follow shortly.
Ahoy from the colorful world of apn
A few weeks ago, we made room for something new in our upholstery shop. Now where to put our “old” upholstery fabrics? We decided to donate them to Bridge&Tunnel.
Behind the fair fashion label are passionate people who want to make the world a little better with small steps. They process old textiles, overproduction and now also our fabric treasures into high-quality accessories, home textiles, selected fashion pieces and advertising material.
Last Friday our crew member Caroline sailed to Hamburg with a fully packed “ship” and brought the cargo over personally. Once there, she was warmly welcomed by Conny. After unloading, we chatted a bit, posed and visited the production. Then it was time for our Caroline to “cast off” and return to the shipyard.
This was definitely not our last visit to Bridge&Tunnel. As we all know, you always see each other twice in life – and you might soon see one of our upholstery fabrics in a new design!
What a success!
Already in 2020 apn® was registered as a trademark. Recently, our apn Lamella is now also allowed to wear a fancy “®”. Because our apn Lamella® has been entered in the register by the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) as a Union trademark!
The apn Lamella® acoustic baffles are particularly suitable for large rooms and office spaces. They act as a breakwater, thus reducing sound propagation and preventing sound reflection from the ceiling. Thus, the basic damping of the room is optimized by the outstanding acoustic properties. In particular, our baffles are excellent for concrete core activated ceilings, as the air can continue to circulate undisturbed. So much for the technical properties.
Our acoustic baffles also look great: whether color-laminated, classic white, straight-lined, wave-shaped or free-form. Our apn Lamella® impresses with its diverse design possibilities as well as its acoustic high performance!
Individual acoustic solutions down to the smallest detail
One of our latest projects is this 240 sqm coworking space at TH Wildau. Measure the drill holes with a laser measuring device, mark them, drill the holes, insert the dowels, attach the wire ropes and the baffle elements and adjust them. That, in a nutshell, is the standard process our installation crew uses to mount our apn® Lamella acoustic baffles to the ceiling.
The client’s wish was not only to significantly reduce the hall’s reverberation time, but also to create a shade underneath the atrium with the acoustic solution. Due to the existing steel construction and the wishes of the clientele, a new fastening option for our apn® Lamella was sought for this project.
Where locomotives were once manufactured, our acoustic baffles now hang neatly from the steel girders with the help of girder clamps. The mounting system also proved to be an uncomplicated and quick installation solution. In no time at all, a baffle ceiling was created that blends seamlessly with the supporting structure to create a modern overall appearance.
A big thank you to our installation crew who made this happen at about 6 meters with their know-how and experience. Once again we could rely on the expertise and experience of our team – where would we be without you?!
