Turkington Construction successfully executed the £13 million relocation project for The Department of Agriculture, Environment & Rural Affairs (DAERA) Headquarters, which is now situated in Ballykelly, Co. Derry. This outstanding undertaking created a significant milestone as it marked the inaugural
instance of a government department moving its headquarters to a rural location in Northern Ireland.
The three-storey office facility was meticulously designed with a strong emphasis on environmental friendliness.
The 5175m² head office exhibits a distinctive and straightforward geometric design that harmonises seamlessly with the rural landscape, respecting and enhancing its inherent character.
In addressing the acoustic considerations, the project aimed to achieve dual objectives: enhancing the acoustic comfort within the building while also complementing the rustic and organic ambiance of its surrounding environment.
SDG’s team of acoustic experts was called upon to provide a solution to enhancing the acoustic comfort of buildings and can also seamlessly blend with rural surroundings.
SDG supplied Décor Slat Acoustic Panels, these acoustic panels provide a cost-effective and aesthetically pleasing solution.
The Décor Slat Acoustic Panel system allows the designers to create a dynamic and elegant space using the natural look of timber battens. The flexibility of the panelled slat systems, available in various sizes and finishes, enables a bespoke design that perfectly complements unique geometrical buildings. By utilising pre-finished panels, the installation process is exceptionally quicker, leading to faster project completion and reduced onsite costs.
The incorporation of SDG Décor Slat Acoustic Panels proved to be a resounding success, providing a harmonious blend of functionality, aesthetics, and environmental sustainability for the client.
The project stands as a testament to the effectiveness and efficiency of these panels in achieving the desired acoustic comfort while complementing the natural feel of the surrounding environment.
