The Adidas Village was built on a 10.5-acre former hospital
site, using existing and new structures. Sonex™
Squareline Metal Ceiling Tiles were incorporated
to add a modern look to the reception area, conference
rooms and various offices. The high-tech look of Sonex™
Squareline Metal Ceiling Tiles also complimented
the merchandise displays, which are continually updated,
along the walls within the showrooms.
“We put Sonex™
Squareline Metal Ceiling Tiles in places that get
noticed, places where we want to make an impression
with clients or the general public,” said Owen
Clemens, special projects director for Adidas. “We
really like the way they look. Plus, they control sound
and are cost effective.”
“The appeal of Sonex™
Squareline Metal Ceiling Tiles is not limited to
just the ceiling,” said Michael Roberts, interior
architect for LRS Architects. “The non-directional
pattern of the tiles compliments the rooms, fixtures
and display items. The contrast of the metal grid finish
and the charcoal background insert was a complimentary
ingredient in the interior’s aesthetic appeal.”
Sonex™
Squareline is a fresh alternative to traditional,
linear or perforated metal ceiling tiles. These galvanized,
powder-coated, expanded metal ceiling tiles are pre-bonded
to illbruck’s proprietary, Class 1 fire-rated
willtec® FM foam. Depending on the thickness of
the foam insert, willtec absorbs 55 to 80 percent of
the sound that reaches them.
Sonex™
Squareline tiles are durable and provide clean lines
to compliment offices, convention centers, retail stores,
conference facilities and other modern interior spaces.
The tiles are notched for quick orientation and can
be installed into a standard ceiling grid at any stage
of construction.
The Adidas Village, which received praise for its design,
use of recycled materials and energy efficiency, accommodates
administrative, product development, sales, marketing
and other functions for Adidas Saloman North America.
The design team included BOORA Architects, LRS Architects,
R&H Construction, KPFF Consulting Engineers, Glumac
International, David Evans & Associates and Lango
Hansen Landscape Architects.
