NEWS & PROJECTS
The Brookville project
New York
PLECTERE has landed in America.
Last spring, we were commissioned by award-winning New York architects Mancini Duffy to provide the PLECTERE aline for use as room dividers in one of their New York projects. Not only does PLECTERE create visual separation between the different spatial characters, but because of its transparency it retains the open character of the space. The PLECTERE, including their wooden frame were assembled entirely on site.
Headquarters KPMG International
Hospitality — PLECTERE in KPMG restaurant of the Vermaat Group
The restaurant of the headquarters of KPMG in Amstelveen, designed by Marcel van der Schalk, was in need of a serious makeover. The use of hard materials in the ceilings was not conducive to the acoustic experience of the space, and its large size called for some spatial separation...
Delft University of Technology
The Department of Industrial Design chose PLECTERE
The Department of Industrial Design at TU Delft consisted of smaller office spaces separated by an extremely wide corridor in the middle of which are an entire row of large round columns. An open space was created by removing the offices on one side of the corridor in order to accommodate conference space, collaboration areas and flexible workspaces. 3 PLECTERE dividers visually separate the open space from the hallway. This semi-transparent sound-absorbing textile wall brings privacy and tranquillity to the new open space while creating a visual separation between the new corridor and the workplaces.
City of Leiden
PLECTERE already specified in the early stages of interior design
The City of Leiden recently renovated the former ROC building adjacent to Leiden Central station. At the earliest stage of the design process, Kraaijvanger architects specified PLECTERE acoustic textile due to the multifunctional character of the space which required a determined level of acoustic absorption. PLECTERE was able to make an important contribution to the acoustic comfort of the large open office concept where the space is divided into zones appropriate to the type of work taking place..
Office Vanderlande Industries
PLECTERE helps with the acoustics at VDL.
The new headquarters of Vanderlande Industries is a beautiful and open workplace, bringing people together to collaborate, innovate, learn and socialize. As with many open workplaces, a spatial balance is required to accommodate privacy, wellbeing, focus and concentration. In this case, balance was achieved with PLECTERE dividers placed in a spacious corridor. Not only does this solution create a pleasant and comfortable environment, it absorbs ambient sound and provides visual and spatial separation.
Showroom Royal Ahrend

​
Ahrend is an international leader in contemporary and sustainable office products. Like PLECTERE, Ahrend products and interiors are designed to encourage wellbeing and productivity. Their showroom in Sint Oedenrode is completely surrounded by glass walls devised with large sliding frames for the walls, integrated with PLECTERE panels. With this bespoke solution, we were able diffuse the light flooding into the space and improve the acoustics at the same time in a subtle, transparent and flexible way.
