Revolut Global HQ, London
The problem: Revolut's new global headquarters in Canary Wharf is London's largest ever design-and-build office project, 113,000 square feet across four floors. The brief demanded a workplace that genuinely inspires people to come in, balancing focused work, energetic collaboration, and social connection. A carefully layered acoustic strategy was needed to make each zone work on its own terms, without compromising the bold design vision.
Room Type: Offices
Location: London
Our solution
Resonics collaborated with AIS Interiors to supply and install bespoke acoustic solutions across Revolut’s new global headquarters.
Our approach was built around the needs of the people using it. Different zones call for different things; the energy of an open floor feels very different to the focus needed at a desk, or the clarity required in a meeting room, and the acoustic design reflects that.
In the open-plan areas, baffles were suspended from the ceiling to absorb sound before it builds. Silent Space Rafts were positioned above breakout and focus zones, bringing a quieter, more settled quality to the areas where people need to concentrate.
The auditorium received Nown Trisoft ceiling tiles, a product that does two things well: it looks considered and architectural, and it reduces the echo that large open spaces tend to create.
For the meeting rooms, Tenso Wall panels were chosen for their clean, seamless finish and strong performance, spaces where conversations need to stay in the room, and distractions need to stay out.
This combination of ceiling, wall, and raft treatments ensured:
- Reverberation is kept in check across open and social zones
- Clearer conversation in meeting rooms and focus areas
- Zones that feel distinct and purposeful without physical barriers
- A consistent look and feel throughout
The Outcome
The result is a headquarters that performs as well as it looks.
Each zone, from quiet focus areas to high-energy social spaces, has the acoustic conditions it needs to function at its best. For a company whose office is a direct expression of its brand, that matters: sound shapes how a space feels, and at Revolut’s HQ, people have an environment that gives them every reason to do their best work.
