25 North Wall Quay, Dublin — the new headquarters for A&L Goodbody. The 155,000 sq ft waterfront office redevelopment transformed a 1990s building into a modern workspace focused on sustainability, occupant wellbeing and contemporary design.
Working alongside Henry J Lyons Architects, Glenbrier Construction and WSC Contracting, the project utilised seamless floating acoustic ceiling rafts throughout key office areas.
The design team required a ceiling solution that delivered both high acoustic performance and a clean architectural finish suited to a modern corporate environment.
The solution needed to provide a seamless monolithic appearance, class A acoustic performanceand and colour matched to RAL 0808 005. The system also needed to allow for the integration of recessed lighting and climate control ventilation within the floating raft ceiling design.
Vogl Toptec® – spray-applied monolithic acoustic plaster system
SDG supplied the Vogl Toptec® acoustic plaster system — a seamless acoustic ceiling solution combining perforated acoustic panels with a machine-applied acoustic plaster finish.
The system delivers excellent sound absorption while maintaining a refined textured appearance with no visible joints. The prefabricated ceiling rafts also allowed for seamless integration of lighting, ventilation and exposed ceiling services.
The complete system includes:
The completed project delivers a contemporary office environment with excellent acoustic comfort and clean architectural detailing throughout.
The Vogl Toptec® system achieved the seamless finish envisioned by the design team while supporting the wider sustainability and workplace wellbeing goals of the redevelopment.
The project highlights how acoustic performance, integrated services and modern ceiling design can work together within high-specification commercial spaces.
