Soundtect supplied acoustic expertise to workplace design and build specialist Interaction, in a project that created the ultimate workplace for money.co.uk.
Price comparison website money.co.uk’s 10,000ft2 Grade II Listed Victorian castle in Cirencester didn’t illustrate its standing and vision for the future of the business and Interaction was called in to transform the building. The design concept was to juxtapose the traditional architecture of the castle with a contemporary one-of-a-kind finish. The unique building provides a characterful and quirky setting for a workplace, so the interior needed to reflect the eccentricity of the exterior. Just some of the design features include a bespoke Star Wars-themed cinema complete with a popcorn machine, hand-painted suits of armour and Rolling Stones and Steam Punk-themed bathrooms.
We supplied our Class A-rated acoustic panels to provide money.co.uk’s staff with a relaxing and quiet environment in the Radio Room so they could retreat, relax and escape the hustle and bustle of the office environment. Our 61 x 61cm Cubism panels in tan, charcoal and ash tones were used to create an acoustically-sound but also interesting interior which echoes the rest of the building. The panels were chosen because they reduce background noise levels and could support the quiet, relaxing environment Interaction was looking to achieve. It was also important that they were easy to clean and non-toxic.
The finished result of the £3m investment is a fun, unique and extraordinary environment that goes beyond convention to give the people of money.co.uk the ultimate workplace.
