Gerflor’s interlocking tiles specified on RIBA Stirling Prize nominee

Short-listed for the 2013 Royal Institute of British Architects Stirling Prize, the Medical School at the University of Limerick has attracted high praise for its striking limestone exterior and internal use of light and space. And when it came to specifying the flooring for this landmark building, the architects had pragmatic and aesthetic demands that international vinyl flooring specialist Gerflor was able to specifically meet.

Ger Carty, Associate Director at Dublin based Grafton Architects, explained: “On the upper levels our environmental strategy included the use of exposed concrete to moderate the internal temperature. As a consequence a significant number of the services are provided in a raised access floor, which drove our interest in choosing tiles, as opposed to sheet flooring.

“We use Attraction® in a lot of projects and it’s a top class product to work with because of the way it interlocks so tightly that the join is barely visible.”
