When you’re considering interior design changes for the office, it can be easy to overlook one of the most influential aspects of the space: the ceiling. The ceiling is all too often left as an untapped resource from a design point of view.
Typical, mundane ceilings miss the opportunity to add depth, dimension and beauty to an office setting. Office spaces need to elicit a dynamic presence with a multi-dimensional design that inspires productivity and controls acoustics. Consider these nine ceiling tile alternatives to spruce up your office space:
“Elegant Bar Seating” Featuring: SoftSpan® 48 by Arktura
The classic trellis provides dimension with an open nature and an airy elegance. Adding depth with a new take on the classic trellis is easy with SoftSpan 48® or SoftSpan 24® by Arktura. When interconnected with SoundBar®, a dynamic ceiling layout with acoustic control becomes the main focus.
“Office Lounge” Featuring: SoftSpan® 48 A by Arktura
As ceiling tile alternatives, ceiling trellis options define specific areas of an office while accenting the height of the space. It’s a fascinating way to keep the room from looking overly busy while adding visual interest.
