Moveable walls provide flexibility and space for Canary Wharf Offices

Style have provided their The Dorma Hüppe Variflex ML100 moveable walls for Canary Wharf offices in London, delivering flexible space that can be quickly adapted.

Style were invited back to their London offices to install two further partitioning solutions, effectively sub-dividing a key meeting area.

The Dorma Hüppe Variflex ML100 moveable walls allow the open-plan space, where seminars and large group briefings take place to be closed off, creating three separate rooms for client meetings or smaller gatherings.

Due to its 59dB Rw acoustic integrity, all areas can be used concurrently, entirely undisturbed.

Style originally installed a fully automatic Dorma Hüppe moveable wall to sub-divide the firm’s conference room.

On this occasion, working with architect Align and Overbury, Style was contracted to install two semi-automatic moveable walls to another meeting area.

The difference between the two systems is that a fully automatic wall slides into place at the touch of a button.

With semi-automatic operation, the panels are manoeuvred manually into place before rubber seals automatically expand to form the most effective acoustic seal.

Both systems allow for quick reconfiguration of an area, ensuring the space is fully utilised throughout the working day.

Julian Sargent, Style’s Group Managing Director said: “This global consulting group is yet another example of a business that has previously seen the benefits of flexible space and, as a result, has returned to ask us to add even more adaptability into their offices.”

One of the walls features a writable white laminate finish, allowing staff to use it as a whiteboard on which to jot down ideas and brainstorm.

The other side of the wall has a pearl-grey fabric finish that complements the interior design of the room.
