University of Copenhagen: Acoustics matter
The University of Copenhagen’s in-house designer embraced the opportunity to bring in acoustic properties for the renovation of the Library.
It’s a well-known fact that well-being and productiveness are paramount when designing a space that is meant for work, learning and reading. So when in-house designer, Peter Schjøtt Andersen wanted to soften the noise levels in the library building he needn’t look further than Ege Carpets and their ReForm Memory Ecotrust carpet tiles.
Wanting to exploit the noise reducing properties of this product but still create a homely and warm look and feel as well, Anderson’s carpet choice was obvious.
The choice of colours, primarily based on neutrals as white, grey and black create a basic visual calmness, ideal for enhanced focus and efficiency. Combined with warmer brown tones and a sprinkling of light woods species and greens from big plants the library is enriched with a homely and cosy atmosphere.
