Peaceful & Calm - A canteen that keeps the noise down
Let’s face it - plenty of workplace canteens are far from peaceful. This concept puts sound at the centre. Noise absorbing materials, clever and clearly defined zones help to keep noise down and stress levels lower. The result? A calm, welcoming space where the team can genuinely switch off, recharge and enjoy their break - even when the room is full.

High on comfort and low on noise
In a lively canteen, the right furniture can completely transform the space. TEvery piece in this concept is chosen to bring calm and structure to a busy environment. Tables with linoleum tops help absorb the clatter of cutlery and plates, particular chairs have been chosen to reduce scraping on the floor. Upholstered armchairs and pouffes add both comfort and variety, while soft fabrics, gentle tones and rounded shapes create a more laid-back, inviting feel.
Practical solutions:
- The PLURAL table with a sound-absorbing linoleum table top reduces noise.
- The DAWSON chair with armrests and a suspension-friendly frame helps dampen scraping sounds.
- The VARIETY pouffe provides a softer, more relaxed seating option.
- The START sofa in dark brown adds comfort with a calm, understated look.
- THE HARMONY armchair and MOOD coffee table create secluded lounge area for quieter moments.




Interior design to soothe the mind
This concept focuses on acoustics to create a more tranquil canteen experience, with sound-absorbing solutions across both walls and ceilings to cut down echo and background noise. Overhead panels double as visual dividers, helping to define zones and add a sense of flow - like smaller rooms within the larger space. Soft tones and natural wood finishes tie it all together, creating a calm, inviting environment where people can unwind.
Practical solutions:
- The drop-shaped POLY acoustic panel captures sound and adds soft shapes.
- The ceiling SATELLITE accoustic panel cuts down on ambient sound from above.
- The hanging CIRCLES sound absorbing panels doubles as a room divider.
- The MELVIN rug helps absorb sound while adding warmth and softness underfoot.
