A wall is never just a wall. You must look at the pieces. To understand the Egood partition, you must break it down in your mind. For a law office, we use the Acoustic Movable Partitions. The lawyer, he sees a strong, solid wall. Good. But I see the inside story. I see the guts of the German engineering: the seals that push tight on the floor, the special edges that lock together. The high STC number is not just a number, it is a promise: "your secret is safe." So serious.
Then, total change. A school, full of noisy kids, uses an Egood partition Folding Partition to split the big sports hall. Here, number one thing is durability. It must be tough, tough, tough. People will slam it every day. The genius of the Egood partition is this. The same idea of precision works for the expensive lawyer and the busy school. It is a machine for quiet, and a machine for play. My job as designer? I must be the master of these pieces. I check the track on the ceiling and I choose the color. Both are important. An Egood partition is not one thing. It is a hundred small, perfect things working together in a kind of beautiful chaos.
