Multiroll Divides New Teaching Space at London College


W created.


Meeting the criteria for a simple, yet highly effective, solution to divide the expansive space, Style recommended its popular Multiroll system.


Practical and affordable, Multiroll is a flexible, vertically rising moveable wall system that safely transforms vast spaces. Being housed in the ceiling when not in use, it takes up no floor space whatsoever, descending gracefully into position at the turn of a key.


Extensive safety testing and size specifications make Multiroll particularly suitable for schools, community centres and leisure facilities, delivering enhanced noise insulation and improved acoustics for large open areas such as gyms, sports halls and high-ceilinged rooms.


Waltham Forest College in London, is an inclusive college, supporting and encouraging students to ‘Think BIG’ in achieving their career goals.


Following a feasibility study into repurposing the old swimming pool and auxiliary spaces across the lower ground and ground floor, it was decided to convert this entire area into a large flexible teaching and learning space.


“The Multiroll is the perfect solution for Waltham Forest College,” said Michael Porter, Style’s group managing director, “as it’s an affordable and very effective solution for quickly dividing space and changing the use of the room.”
