NOISE ABSORPTION IN ENTERTAINMENT FACILITY

ELEGANCE AND NOISE CONTROL MAKE CONTOUR® CEILING TILES THE PERFECT CHOICE FOR COUNTRY CLUB'S DINING ROOM AND HIGH-TRAFFIC AREAS

Picture an elegant, award-winning country club formal dining room in south Florida — an array of windows providing a breathtaking view of three championship golf courses. Now picture this dining room filled to capacity with 300 guests for Sunday brunch or a special function — conversing at high decibel levels to compensate for sound reflection off windows and hardwood floors, straining to hear each other over the clatter of dishes.

When remodeling 6,000 square feet of clubhouse dining areas and lobby, The Fountains Country Club in Lake Worth, Fla., carefully considered these appearance and acoustic issues. The solution: CONTOUR Ceiling Tiles by pinta Architectural Products.

"The Fountains Country Club is a private, 900-member golf and tennis club within a gated community, so we definitely needed a ceiling product that had an elegant appearance," says Leslie Karen, director of purchasing, The Fountains Country Club. "Acoustic control — reducing noise levels — was the other extremely important consideration. We have an older member population and a dining room full of windows.

Excess noise is a potential problem. We looked at various acoustical tiles and fabric ceiling coverings, but none came close to the distinctive elegance and noise reduction characteristics of CONTOUR Ceiling Tiles. This new ceiling dresses up our award-winning formal dining room beautifully, and our members are very complimentary about it."

CONTOUR Wall and Ceiling tiles are available in 10 different designs and 10 standard colors that can be used alone or mixed and matched to create unique patterns. The Fountains' formal dinning room, Grille Room dining area and lobby included two different patterns in custom-colored "butter toffee" to create a design unique for the facility.

CONTOUR Ceiling Tiles have a backer board for stability and are easy to install in drop-in grid systems. Noise reduction coefficients (NRCs) range from 0.95 to 1.20. Ideal for both new construction and retrofitting — CONTOUR tiles are appropriate for many environments, including ballrooms, meeting facilities, conference and board rooms, offices, entertainment facilities, call centers and customer service departments, lobbies and entryways.

CONTOUR offers a unique marriage of form and function — designer appearance and unparalleled acoustical control — both of which are critical in high visibility, high-traffic spaces.
