Tichelrij (school)

The number of children is increasing in several northern European countries, so is the need for good childcare institutions. It is important to include the children's perspective in the design of the new institutions, and that the architecture supports the development of body and mind.Read the full product experience here: https://stertekt.nl/ Or download our Brochure: https://stertekt.nl/upload/a411bc_2024-v1_Sterktekt_Brochu.pdf Maria Bax Fotografie According to Mille Sylvest, PhD in environmental psychology and partner at the consultancy Human Studio, new buildings should meet the specific needs of the institution in question - and not follow a universal template.

Simple abstraction and minimalist detailing define the uplifting Jinan Changzhuang Church

Simple and minimal, the church space of the Jinan Changzhuang Church by Archipoetry Studio is abstracted into a basic building block. With limited decoration, structural design was carefully considered from the outset with the architect controlling the column spacing and column cross-sections to ensure the main hall presents a classical, symmetrical and rhythmic spatial atmosphere.  Jianbo Ke In the main façade of the building, U-shaped glass with vertical lines is used, combined with the cross shape of the steel structure. The simple design move results in a visually upward feeling force.  Jianbo Ke The exterior of the building is a dark colour, to ensure durability and integration in the surrounding environmen...

SilentPET | acoustic design panels

Each space is different. Large glass surfaces, hard floors, open spaces, or high light clearance. The composition of the construction, carpet, or furnishings usually improves the acoustic conditions in the room, but only by using acoustic panels can you achieve the correct acoustic conditions. Choosing the correct shapes and location plays a role in the final effect of fine-tuning both the room and its users acoustically.   ACOUSTICS FROM PET BOTTLESWe think ecologically and we care about sustainability. That's why we came up with the idea of how to produce acoustic panels from PET bottles. PET bottles are processed into fibers in the manufacturing process to form a final blend of material. Final rolling produces SilentPET® sound... More

OPUS Business Park Helsinki – A Unique Acoustic Space

Commissioned to design the reception areas for the newly renovated OPUS Business Park in Helsinki, interior designers Niina Sihto and Emma Keränen converted an empty, grey tiled space into a warm, welcoming reception hall. They eliminated sound reflections from tiled floors and huge glass windows by installing a number of BAUX designs. The texture of the wood-wool tiles contrasted the hard surfaces and helped to soft the space. The colours have also had a huge impact. The client wanted a warm feeling on entering the building, so Nina and Emma chose soft reds that complemented the client’s brand identify. The inspiration for the designs came from our BAUX design tool and sample images on the BAUX website. The construction process was quic... More

KPMG Copenhagen – Scandinavian Style

On moving to their new offices nestled in the newly renovated Nordhaven district in Copenhagen, KPMG wanted to create a space that represented their Nordic business values. Lead designer Francisco Sarria, took his inspiration from the dockside location. The idea was to bring the location indoors. Large-scale BAUX designs fill the reception and waiting areas with visions of sea and sky. It’s here that visitors get their first taste of the relaxed Nordic style of business. The geometric BAUX shapes meant many possibilities for graphic expression. Everything points up and to the right – forwards, towards innovation. Two twenty-meter tall BAUX designs give the feeling of being outside, in the harbour on a summer’s day. Wood fibre textures an... More
