Prelude 15 XL2 grid, as well as 16sqm of these tiles in circulation areas. In addition, the main lecture theatre,


which is one of the early purpose-built concrete lecture theatre structures and Grade B listed, featured 180sqm of Armstrong’s 1200mm x 600mm Ultima OP tiles installed on a Prelude


servitor’s box and lobby to accommodate a mobile staff ed coff ee bar and some lounge seating. Armstrong Ceilings were supplied by SIG Interiors and installed in the 850sqm single-storey 1950/60s concrete crosswall building by Universal Ceilings in two phases, culminating in March 2014. UB
