Baffles play critical role in mixed-use lounge space at Qualtrics Chicago office

Qualtrics Chicago Office

For Qualtrics, an experience management software firm, creating a welcoming and comfortable environment for its employees is a top priority, and remained of utmost importance for the fit-out of their new Chicago office.

Working with design firm โ€˜Partners by Designโ€™ (โ€˜PBDโ€™), the team recognised the need to balance areas for focused work with more informal, mixed-use collaborative spaces. To address the potential issue of rising noise levels within their open-plan lounge and informal workspace, PBD enlisted the help of Folio-Solutions for advice on the best acoustic solutions.

Ultimately, Acoufelt custom โ€˜Beamโ€™ Bafflesย inย the โ€˜Wine Barrelโ€™ WoodBeQuietโ„ข print were put forward for their strong sound-absorption abilities and dynamic visual presence. Easy to install and designed to mimic the natural aesthetic of real wood beams, our custom โ€˜Beamโ€™ Baffles offer all the benefits of real timber, without the associated weight and sound reverberation problems. They are also comprised of a minimum 60% recycled PET material, and generated using 40% solar energy.

Strategically positioned, the Baffles guide the eye through the open plan office to create a sense of space and wayfinding, while also subtly cloaking the cavernous open ceiling.

For Qualtrics Chicago, our acoustic Baffles will play a crucial role in ensuring that the creative ideas generated by employees arenโ€™t inhibited by excessive noise and echo.
