 | | MINI GETS 'ICONIC' REFLECTIVE BLACK METAL CEILINGS FROM SAS INTERNATIONAL |  | | SAS INTERNATIONAL | | 24/10/2006 | | | The MINI is a car that wins hearts and turns heads and its continued success has enabled it to be sold separately from the BMW range as a stand-alone brand. Consequently the development of a series of standalone MINI showrooms with their own distinctive 'iconic' look is currently being undertaken across dealerships in the UK. Stunning black reflective metal ceilings from SAS International have already been used within a number of these showrooms including Swindon, Stevenage, Chigwell and Solihull, while their use is planned in other locations still under development.
Using a concept design developed by the MINI brand team in Munich and implemented by MDG (Motor Design Group) Architects the showrooms are a radical change; incorporating black ceilings, walls and a dark tiled floor in conjunction with striking neon lighting to create a stylish and atmospheric environment that represents the ethos of the Mini brand - refreshingly different, extroverted, spontaneous and in every respect something out of the ordinary.
Either the concealed grid (System 150) or the lay-in tile (System 130) suspended metal ceiling solutions from SAS International have been used within the main showroom areas. With a reflective high-gloss finish in black the ceiling not only looks great but also complies with the stringent, high quality and contemporary specifications required by BMW. SAS metal ceilings have an expected lifespan in excess of 25 years, they do not require re-decoration and are incredibly easy to clean, while the polyester power coating ensures fantastic durability as it is not susceptible to paint chipping, accidental damage, and has a high level of scratch resistance. |  |
