...to create a signature space CANOPY COLLECTION 2009

Shape your acoustics with the Canopy Collection Functionality & efficiency The development of environmentally friendly products and building techniques, large volumes, the need for flexible workspaces, and the move towards urban living have produced designs which meet two main architectural trends: Aesthetics & acoustic performance Functionality and efficiency Aesthetics and acoustic performance A desire for larger spaces is a dominant trend across Europe which concerns office space, leisure areas and retail outlets. Armstrong Canopies offer individual space which improves well-being, acoustics and visual comfort in personal and collective areas, reception halls, waiting rooms and corridors. A trend for simplicity and functionality is also highlighted, through a minimalist appearance, neutral colours and simple volumes. Armstrong offers Canopies which are quick and easy to install and suitable for plasterboard, open ceilings, existing ceiling on grid Searching for original, hard-hitting and differentiating designs is a way for architects to create and sign their own space. Playing with different materials, shapes and sizes and letting the design follow the acoustics is easier and allows the architect to express their creativity. In order to meet these expectations, Armstrong offers the largest choice of discontinuous ceilings with the Canopy range: Ultima Canopy, Orcal Canopy, Axiom Canopies, Infusions Canopy and Optima Canopy. Armstrong architectural designs protect the environment and embrace technology; recycled materials, reuse of architectural elements, good light reflectance and acoustics are all aspects which are taken into account. At the same time, flexibility and modular space is also in demand: semi-partitions and canopies are used to structure space and adapt it to the occupant s needs. Also, original aesthetics which meet acoustical performance are looked for in order to find a balance between acoustic absorption, intelligibility and improve space design.
