The Novotel Hotel project in Christchurch was designed using Décortech panels which were specified on level 6 and the mezzanine interior ceilings and matching Trespa Wood Décor panels on the exterior soffits. The interior areas feature Firesafe MDF with American White Ash Crown Cut veneer designed with a mix of both acoustic and decorative panels in a clear satin UV finish. The level 6 ceiling is a multi-faceted design, where our specialist CAD technicians produced over 450 individual shop drawings to ensure every panel was manufactured to fit the design perfectly.
The mezzanine has glass panels floor to ceiling, showcasing the continuous flow of the Décortech interior ceiling panels to the matching Trespa exterior soffit panels. Trespa Meteon Elegant Oak Wood Décor panels were specified on the entry soffits and wraps around the entire hotel.
