Located around five miles outside of Keighley in West Yorkshire, The Hive is a working showroom crafted by design and fit-out specialists Ultimate Group. The 16,000 sq ft space features cutting-edge workspace solutions from leading brands – including our innovative acoustic solutions.

Every open plan workspace needs a smaller, dedicated meeting space – and The Hive offers a secluded, cosy retreat for staff behind a glazed partition.

Unfortunately, smaller spaces present acoustic problems when multiple users are present or when using the space for videoconferencing. This is simply due to soundwaves reverberating within the confined area, bouncing back and forth off hard surfaces such as walls, floors, ceilings and windows.

To eliminate this issue, two large fabric-wrapped ReSound acoustic panels were fixed directly to the wall behind the existing wall-mounted TV to help reduce reverberation and enhance clarity and privacy during meetings.

For the final epic feature we installed some of our Flott ceiling tiles in one of the meeting spaces. In two different colours and a variety of designs, these tiles draw your attention as well as drastically improving the sound quality within the space.
