Ceiling baffles and clouds for workplace planning
Ceiling baffles are suspended acoustic elements, often arranged in rows or grouped as clouds above a defined area. They are distinct from wall-mounted products and desk-mounted screens, making them relevant where walls need to remain clear for displays, windows, services or other finishes.
Use them as part of a broader plan for acoustic office furniture. They can be considered for open-plan work areas, collaboration zones, meeting rooms, cafés and circulation spaces, with the final layout coordinated around ceiling height, lighting, ventilation and sprinkler systems.
What to consider when selecting overhead acoustic elements
- Room function, ceiling height and the areas below the installation
- Panel shape, dimensions and the visual rhythm of the arrangement
- Suspension method and coordination with existing ceiling services
- Material, fabric or finish options to complement the interior color palette
- Whether additional treatment, such as acoustic wall panels, is appropriate elsewhere in the room
