Customised Acoustic Ceiling Panels from Supawood

Inspiring 'tree' ceiling by SUPAWOOD
adds warmth to award winning school hall

SUPAWOOD's SUPACOUSTIC acoustic panels warm the interior of the new award winning multipurpose hall at St Pius X High School in Adamstown, Newcastle NSW.

In mid-2012 the school's hall was completely destroyed through fire by suspected arson, the damage estimated at more than $500,000. Schreiber Hamilton Architecture were given the brief to design a new communal meeting place using simple materials which would serve as a long lasting centre of inspiration and reflection for the school.

SUPACOUSTIC customised panels in SUPAFINISH Hoop Pine concept veneer perfectly fulfilled the interior design intent. Offering a highly durable consistent finish, a customisable acoustic option, proprietary fixing system and Group 1 fire rating, this product provided an effective cost saving alternative to plywood.

The interior of this building has incredible warmth evoked by the timber finish throughout. The ceiling has been lined with grooved and perforated SUPACOUSTIC acoustic panels which form a tree motif over the entire surface. Lighting has been integrated into the patterned panels to emulate twinkling stars. Matching SUPAFINISH Hoop Pine concept veneer panels have been used on the walls between windows and other matched joinery.
