Cogent’s Offices by MF Design Studio
Client: Cogent
Designer: MF Design Studio
The amazing space was designed by MF Design Studio and created by Spec Construction for Cogent. This perfectly demonstrates how acoustic solutions can not only make a space calmer and more comfortable but also enhance its overall design.
A standout feature of the project is the Rhythmic range of acoustic wall panelling. In one of the boardrooms, Energise Pong in Wheatear Beige was selected to not only provide a calming effect but also to help to minimise distractions during meetings, allowing for clearer communication and a more focused atmosphere. The neutral colour complements the overall design while creating a professional backdrop for discussions.
In the meet-and-greet area, the Constructed design in River was chosen to create a welcoming atmosphere for visitors. This design enhances the aesthetic appeal of the space while serving as a sophisticated backdrop for the Cogent 3D logo. In a smaller meeting space, the Constructed design in Blush introduces a soft touch of colour without overpowering the room. This choice helps create an inviting environment for smaller discussions and brainstorming sessions, adding personality to the space.
The Layered range, also developed in collaboration with MF Design Studio, significantly contributes to the overall elegance of the office. The Origin design, inspired by traditional wall panelling, was applied in Warbler Sage Green and Moss across several boardrooms. This served to ground the design with a classic look but and ensure effective sound absorption, promoting a quieter and more productive work environment.
Additionally, the Aligned design from the Layered range was incorporated into break-out areas, using the colours River and Blush to deliver a clean, minimalist look with acoustic practicalities. The designers combined this with lighting to bring depth and dimension to the space, enhancing its visual appeal.
The Sculpted tiles featured in the main office area were selected in warm terracotta colour, injecting energy into the space. Inspired by the Bauhaus movement, the sculpted acoustic wall tiles features layered, cut shapes, that are timeless and playful. The tiles not only enhance visual interest but also play a practical role in improving sound quality and ensuring clear communication among team members.
The acoustic solutions we've brought into Cogent’s offices really show how modern office design can be both smart and stylish. By focusing on comfort and looks, this project raises the bar for creating workspaces that truly support employee well-being. The end result is an office that’s not just great to look at but also boosts collaboration and focus—definitely a fantastic example for future workplaces!
