Commercial

Commercial developments which include significant areas of open and cellular office space demand attention to acoustic detail at the design and fit-out stage of the project. 

Whilst some consideration has to be given to issues of noise from the mechanical services radiating into the environment and entering the office spaces themselves, the most demanding acoustic issues arise in ensuring the right conditions for office users. 

In particular there is a need for acoustic privacy between workstations to be considered in open plan areas through the selection and optimum location of screens. Reverberation and noise control is also necessary in break-out areas and atria using, for example, banners and patched absorption.

Then there is the common problem of poor sound insulation between adjoining private offices. Spectrum work closely with clients, architects, interiors designers and fit-out contractors. We help select the right partition system and the right ceiling system so that the installers can fit systems easily and quickly knowing that the acoustic results will suit the users' needs.

One of the highest performing spaces in modern offices will be the Video Conferencing Suite. Spectrum are supporting Hewlett Packard in their worldwide roll-out of HALO® facilities.

Other projects include:

  • Exxon-Mobil HQ, London
  • Citibank, London
  • Peldon Rose office fit-outs, London
  • Maris Interiors office fit-outs, London
  • HP HALO suites throughout Europe

This important signature building in the City of London was designed by Horden Cherry Lee. It posed Spectrum, as Design and Build Contractor Skanska’s acoustic consultant, particular challenges with the acoustic characteristics of the curtain walling system.
