Ceilingo: treating comfort as one subject

What Ceilingo builds

■ Comfort taken as a whole

At Ceilingo, every product comes out of that one idea.

The range covers insulation, heating, cooling and sound, each designed on the understanding that the other three exist.

■ Technology built into the fabric, and out of sight

What sets Ceilingo apart is that the walls and the ceilings do the work, instead of appliances standing in front of them.

Products such as the infrared reflective insulationR'BULL, the Ceilingo radiant heated ceiling, eClim cooling, and the Magic Speaker omnidirectional loudspeaker all follow from it.

Why these subjects are not separable

■ What a room feels like to be in

What Ceilingo sets out to do is bring indoors what makes being outdoors comfortable.

Warmth arriving like sunlight, insulation behaving like cloud, sound coming from everywhere rather than from one point. Deal with one of those and leave the others, and the room still feels wrong.

■ Technology that takes its cue from nature

The approach at Ceilingo brings current technology together with the way comfort occurs in nature, in rooms that can be set up to suit the people in them.

That is what lets a house be arranged around how it is actually lived in, rather than around where the equipment had to go.

Ceilingo, comfort decided as one

Ceilingo builds products, and it works from a single idea about what a room should do for the people in it.

Bringing technology together with the way comfort occurs outdoors gives a house that is better to live in, and it puts the people living there at the start of every decision rather than at the end of it.
