Panneau Piano at the heart of the tower

Located in Puteaux, in the Michelet district of La Défense, the Silver Island tower is a 13,200 m² office building designed to meet the highest standards of comfort and sustainability. Scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2025, the building offers nearly 1,100 m² of planted terraces, 140 electrified parking spaces, a 99-seat conference room, and a 580-seat restaurant. The building is aiming for HQE Excellent, BREEAM Excellent, and WELL Gold certifications, reflecting its commitment to environmental excellence and occupant well-being.

To meet the acoustic requirements of this modern building, more than 2,000 m² of Panneau Piano suspended acoustic panels have been installed on all floors. This large-scale project combines sound comfort, aesthetics and environmental commitment.

The modern entrance hall, featuring a soundproof design with large windows, glass balustrades and gray flooring, offers a serene view of the bustling cityscape.

An acoustic design designed for the well-being of occupants

In contemporary workspaces, acoustic comfort is a key element of occupant well-being. Large open floors and coworking spaces require tailored solutions to avoid resonance and improve communication intelligibility.

Thanks to their suspended installation, the Panneau Piano acoustic panels offer a optimal sound absorption while adding a modern aesthetic touch. By reducing sound reverberation and ensuring a pleasant noise level, these panels create an environment conducive to concentration and interaction.

Why did you choose Panneau Piano for Silver Island?

The Silver Island project is part of a demanding architectural and environmental approach. Certified HQE Excellent, BREEAM Excellent and WELL Gold, the building had to integrate acoustic solutions that were both efficient and responsible.

Our acoustic panels are distinguished by:

A design in recycled rPET : made from 50 % recycled plastic bottles, they participate in an eco-design approach.
High-performance sound absorption : ideal for open spaces and collaborative spaces.
Easy installation : their suspended installation optimizes acoustic efficiency and allows discreet integration.

Installation and integration of suspended acoustic panels

To equip Silver Island, a custom installation was created, allowing the suspended acoustic panels to be adapted to the specific needs of each floor. This approach ensures consistent sound absorption while preserving the modularity of the workspaces.

The integration of these suspended panels into the interior architecture of Silver Island demonstrates their versatility: they can be used for visually structure a space and integrate discreetly into the project without altering the light and openness of the volumes.
