BRITANICA Park School

As architects, we believe that architecture should enhance education and develop in children a sense of aesthetic appreciation for the environment. BRITANICA Park School aims to promote tradition while building on it with modern education principles. It is located in the suburbs of Vitosha Mountain and caters to children from 2.5 years old (kindergarten) to 18 years old (school). Todor Todorov This project aims to design architecture that facilitates healthy living & learning. Socialization and communication, enriching social and behavioral habits are integrated in the concept.  Classical and modern ideas guide the building's exterior design. Ultimately, the form implies a connection to Great Britain's culture - tradition a... Más

Top 10 Trending Ceilings

Ceilings are arguably the most visible component of a space. From offices to commercial centers and airports, ceiling finishes can cover vast areas to conceal structural slabs or roofs, and enclose all the various mechanical, electrical, plumbing, lighting and security equipment necessary to building functions. Materials used to clad ceilings can be solid or semi open. They can lend to a space’s acoustical performance with perforated or sound absorbing materials such as mineral wool, wood or felt. These are ten of Archello’s most popular products specified by architects and designers in the past year.      University of Applied Sciences Bielefeld by Auer Weber - © Aldo Amoretti 1.

Alyth Primary

Alyth Primary in Perthshire has undergone an £8.9 million transformation to unite the nursery, primary and community areas and create a protected external learning space. The principle of ‘shared learning’ is at the heart of the project and this is realised using open-plan classrooms, break-out areas and a terrace which extends from the first-floor library to overlook the central courtyard. To ensure this ambitious layout works acoustically, HERADESIGN® and THERMATEX® ceilings from Knauf Ceiling Solutions are installed throughout to achieve the standards required by BB93 Acoustic Design of Schools. An extension to the listed Victorian building is designed with large windows to accentuate the use of light. The natu... Más

The Pavilion

The Pavilion at Coldingham Bay in the Scottish Borders is making waves as a modern, sustainable property that seamlessly fits into the surrounding landscape. Hunter Douglas has created a solid wood linear open ceiling for The Pavilion in Western Red Cedar, chosen for both its aesthetic qualities and longevity. The wood has been fire treated and is suitable for internal and external applications. Internally the wood is interspaced with a black non-woven felt to provide some acoustic absorption, externally Hunter Douglas employed a powder coated black metal infill for durability and to prevent damage from wildlife. More information about wood linear are on the Hunter Douglas website. (see link below) Más

Pamplona Bus Station

The New Bus Terminal of Pamplona was looking for an aluminium ceiling easy to mount, demount and replace in case of damage. The chosen 30BD was customized into a colour chosen by the architect and in a modulation on 100 mm to integrate the light carriers. The ceiling was thought as vertical application too and the light system was taken down from the ceiling leaving the 30BD as a decorative element.

Amsterdam Central Station

"Pierre Cuypers designed Amsterdam Central railway station and the Rijksmuseum at the very edges of the city. At the time, the architect could never have known just how much the city would grow, or that these buildings would one day be viewed as obstacles to the surrounding area. The station, now a bustling hub of transport, no longer has a distinct front and back despite the rapid developments that have taken place behind the station, on the banks of the IJ. These developments have included the creation of 't Muziekgebouw aan het IJ, the EYE Film Museum, which seems to float like a bird on the water, and dozens of restaurants and cultural enterprises." This is according to Evelyne Merkx, of Merk X, famously known for converting Maastricht'... Más

Library of Birmingham

Palazzo’s Centenary Square, the largest public square in the heart of Birmingham, currently lacks cohesion or a clear identity or atmosphere. Mecanoo’s design transforms the square into one with three distinct realms: monumental, cultural and entertainment. These palazzos form an urban narrative of important periods in the history of the city; The Repertory Theatre (REP), a 1960s concrete building, the Library of Birmingham, designed in 2009 and Baskerville House, a listed sandstone building designed in 1936. The busiest pedestrian route in the city, what Mecanoo calls the red line, leads pedestrians into Centenary Square. The cantilever of the library is not only a large canopy that provides shelter at the common entrance of the Library... Más

The ceiling begins and finish in vertical application covering the room completely and connects with a classic furniture and high technology communication systems in the same room.
