MullenLowe

MullenLowe Group is a global network of marketing agencies. Studio Octopi was commissioned to design their new London offices, housing all three MullenLowe agencies as well as the Group’s global headquarters. Led by architect and agency director Chris Romer-Lee, Studio Octopi created the “City of MullenLowe”, fitting out the 4,300 sqm space in a former carpet factory. One of the challenges with this enormous space was creating an effective and attractive acoustic environment. To achieve this, the agency turned to BAUX, installing floor-to-ceiling acoustic paneling in editing suites and meeting spaces.

Professional Sound

In the post-production suites, the sound-absorbing properties of BAUX Acoustic Wood Wool proved critical to their technical success.

Colourful Acoustics

Colour was used to subtly delineate between the different organisations coming together within the building. The lighting was playful and external in aesthetic, which further emphasized the red and blue BAUX panels.

Bold statement

From the exterior, BAUX Acoustic Panels in bold primary colours are visible through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

“The client stated that meeting rooms in their previous office were often occupied for hours even days, which meant less and less space available for a quick chat. There is a noticeable quieter environment when you enter the BAUX-lined in-between spaces. Noise created in these spaces is contained rather than spilling out across the work floor or into the adjacent meeting spaces.”
