Turning Ambition into Reality
The feature reception wall is a standout element of the hospital’s interior, a perfect synthesis of design ambition and expert execution. BVN architects approached us with a bold concept, a curved timber reception wall that would act as both a visual focal point and an acoustic solution for the bustling hospital environment.

Having already been specified for the feature lobby ceilings, the architects trusted our team to devise a buildable, sophisticated solution for the wall. Leveraging our expertise with timber systems, we devised the perfect solution.
This collaboration epitomises the synergy of creativity and practicality, transforming complex architectural ideas into an achievable and stunning reality.


Sophistication in the Details
Beyond the reception wall, the hospital’s lobby ceilings further highlight the visual interest that defines this project. Alternating dome profiles (40mm x 30mm & 60mm x 30mm) in Australian Ash create a visually dynamic effect, while suspended ceiling tracks and 30mm spacing ensure a sleek finish. Acoustic backing and integrated access panels provide functionality and performance to meet the demands of a busy hospital environment.


Collaborative Approach
This project is a testament to the power of collaboration. Working closely with Multiplex, BVN, and Sunshine Contracting Group, our team delivered bespoke solutions that align with the project’s sustainability goals and design vision. From the initial specifications to the final installation, every detail reflects a shared commitment to quality and innovation.
