Application: Armstrong Metalworks baffles were used in the café and reception area using a very unique installation.  

This building is New Zealand’s first and largest purpose-built coworking space, designed to give innovative companies of all sizes the best possible working environment in which to thrive. The architecture and interior design of the workspaces and fittings, meeting rooms and social areas, reflects the state-of-the-art technology and cutting-edge operations which take place within the space.

“It’s never easy to create something unique and different using a proprietary system however, in this space the designer has used a completely distinctive pattern and installation than what we would usually do,” says Elena.

The design consists of a 1200x1200mm Armstrong Metalworks baffle system with cross braces in the center of each module for light fitting support.

“The ceiling in the Grid lounge was a collaborative effort between Jasmax and Forman and to date, it has been a great meeting space for Grid Lounge members and public events,” says Patricia. “The ceiling system helped us achieve our 'Marketplace' concept for the ground floor and we're delighted with the result. It's always rewarding when a unique outcome is achieved, especially with products that are used extensively in commercial fitouts."
