Maple veneered Topakustik panels and planks were used to achieve a unique quality finish which had high sound absorption and attenuation values. Panels were installed to theatre, stage, atrium and corridor areas.

The Topakustik system is manufactured in Switzerland and imported. The 1600 x 128mm planks were used to form a two way curved feature ceiling to the high level atrium area, this minimised echo and provided a focal point.
Classroom areas had 600 x 600 Ecophon Advantage A tiles laying in a 24mm connect grid. Armstrong Nevada Black was used to back of house theatre areas.
