Background
When Freud Communications relocated to their new offices at Newman Street, London W1, they asked Rockport Presentations to equip the new building with high-quality audio visual facilities. The installation was to be completed in two phases over a one-year period.
Project
Phase 1: The first phase involved the design of a high definition screening room where Freud could take their clients to showcase their latest media. We installed a Projection Design Cieno 30 projector, with rear projection on to a 120” 16:9 DNP screen, and installed a RBH 7.1 surround sound system. The screening room equipment was controlled by a Crestron Control system. We installed Sony plasma and LCD screens in a number of meeting rooms and boardrooms; all screens had TV running to them via a Cabletime solution.
Phase 2: Our brief for the second phase was to design a reception area that would capture the attention of visitors in a different light. To achieve this, we installed a Projection Design F1+SX projector and used goo projection paint to turn an angled surface into a high quality projection screen. The projected image was fed by a Zandar switcher; this allowed the client to have multiple channels displayed at one time, creating a mosaic effect. We equipped a large number of meeting rooms with a range of audio visual facilities, including front projection fixed screens, wall-mounted plasma screens, and LCD screens installed on to high level portable trolleys. Once again, all rooms were controlled with a Creston Control system.
Result
The scope of the project demonstrated Rockport Presentations ability to design and create a stunning and unique space with the aid of the very latest high-quality audio visual equipment.
