Armstrong’s Infusions canopies were specified by Stockton Borough Council. They are suspended like saffron-coloured flower petals in three concave groups of six over the new café and chill out area. These are complemented by five Infusions canopies in Midnight Dream blue, hanging from the ceiling. The Midnight Dream is also attached to the wall in the reception area to Splash. The canopies were designed to provide aesthetic quality to the huge double-height space of the café area.
In addition to the polycarbonate Infusion canopies, Splash also features Armstrong’s Ultima white mineral tiles with Tegular edge detailing in the kitchen, storage and office areas. These tiles combine acoustic qualities with high light reflectance and good humidity resistance.
Armstrong’s Orcal microperforated acoustic metal tiles with fleece have also been incorporated into the design. All three types of ceiling solutions were installed over areas ranging from 100 to 2,000 square metres with the work completing in just over a month.
Splash is a wet and dry facility in Stockton on Tees which is based around a 25-metre pool with wave machine and flumes, learner pool and spa pool.
