Tailored acoustical Quadrillo ceiling and wall panels add the warmth of wood to the newly built Air Lease Corporation offices and provide exceptional sound control throughout this open concept space. Quadrillo panels are manufactured from health-friendly No-Added Formaldehyde acoustical components that include a perforated and grooved membrane, a wood frame and fiberglass core to achieve NRC performance of up to 1.0. The face of the panels is finished with Reconstituted Diamond Oak wood veneer to deliver a flawlessly uniform appearance to the area exceeding over 2,200 sq ft. In the elevator lobby Quadrillo panels are custom-shaped and curved to attain a fluid shape around the bulkhead, and above workstations where the ceiling is lowered the 5.5″ high continuous vertical trim visually adds depth to the ceiling, conceals the suspension and delivers a seamless appearance.
The entire ceiling is suspended on custom-engineered and seismically-certified Ceilencio torsion spring system. Not only does Ceilencio allow the panels to be hinged down for full access to the plenum, but it is also safe to use in areas with high earthquake activity such as Los Angeles. For ease of installation, Quadrillo panels and Ceilencio suspension system components are delivered to site as a fully finished product that is ready for assembly.
The Jeremy West Hollywood is a boutique hotel located on the iconic Sunset Strip in Los Angeles. Famous for its active nightlife since at least the 1950’s, the Sunset Boulevard is rich in history and entertainment culture. To capture the essence of this region SOM architects designed “the hotel interiors [to] recall both the urban, rock-and-roll legacy of the Sunset Strip and the archetypal home in the Hollywood Hills” (1). Inside the hotel ballrooms Decoustics triangular-shaped panels with sloping design returns add an edge to the overall motif and visually deliver a 3D effect of floating forms that are coming out of the ceiling.
The triangular shapes are custom-engineered using Claro and have exceptional sound absorption properties, which ensures great acoustics inside the room. In addition, the entire ceiling plenum remains 100% downward accessible with the utilization of Ceilencio suspension grid. Decoustics delivers custom solutions that give you the creative freedom to attain both form and function in your designs.
