ARUP

Arup, the global firm of consulting engineers, designers, planners and project managers, appointed us to undertake the office design and fit-out of the ground floor space of their Capital Waterside offices in Cardiff Bay, which required a detailed bespoke solution.

Arup wanted to create a high-end presentation suite to accommodate large audience groups. This new fit-out needed to integrate with the existing building and have a clean, architectural feel that represented Arup’s culture and values.

Bespoke detail

Attention to the bespoke details of this project were key. Following very specific architectural requirements, the scheme included specialist glazing systems, bespoke catering facilities and a 15-screen audio visual wall display.

Tea point

An informal tea point was partially hidden behind a partition wall to give staff and guests an area that was separate from the main presentation suite but still a part of the space.

Variety

This space needed to suit a variety of uses, from smaller, intimate video conferences to large-scale formal presentations to internal staff and clients.

AV wall

The focal point of the room was the impressive, 3 metre high, 15-screen AV wall. To maintain a clean, architectural feel to the room, all of the state-of-the-art audio-visual kit was concealed within a corridor that was created behind the wall. This housed all of the cabling and equipment and also allowed for additional cupboard space beneath the screens for extra storage.

Project Duration: 7 weeks

Contract Value: £130,000

Floor Area: 145 m²

We are delighted with our new digital ‘HUB’ delivered by the Paramount team. The finishes and general quality of the facility are second to none and the media wall provides a unique and collaborative facility to present digital information on a large scale for the benefit of our clients and projects.
